The Mango Tree restaurant in Bangkok is in the Silom area, it’s got a really nice water fountain and little bar when you first enter and the aura at Mango Tree is wonderful, sitting outside on a nice evening enjoying some famous dishes from all across Thailand, while sipping on ice cold beers.

The Mango Tree has been serving Thai foods for over 10 years, with inspiration from it’s owner Phithaya Phanphensophon, that every guest will be treated as if they are coming into you’re own home, what a great goal for a restaurant to have! I love it!!!

Their recommended dishes include Po Tuon, Yam Som-O, Shrimp Pad Thai, and Choo Chee Goong Nang and have some great cocktails also

The Menu: The menu has a TON of Thai dishes from all over Thailand, if you love thai food then you will definately love looking through the Mango Tree menu. You can see their entire menu here
What I Ate:
The Staff: The waiter at Mango Tree understood English fine, we had no problems communicating
The Bathroom: They are really tiny, but somewhat decent

If you’re wandering around Central World with an empty tummy I would highly advise you stop and try Triple-O’s famous burgers, they are big juicy and wonderful! All their burgers are made with 100% pure beef patties. They even have a breakfast menu! And another perk about eating in CW in general is that you can enjoy your meal while surfing the net, they have Wifi available!

The Menu: They have a breakfast menu, and a lot of big burger combo meals, and even a veggie burger combo for you wonderful vegetarians (I salute you!)
What I Ate: I eat the Triple O’s original burger combo (200 baht, approx $6 US) which was delicious, topped with famous Triple “O” sauce, lettuce, and tomoato, comes with french fries and a 12oz coke, mmm, I was actually heading there today! LOL
The Staff: The staff in my many visits to Triple O’s was great, friendly and spoke a tiny bit of English
The Bathroom: Triple O’s is inside Central World, so you’ll need to use the public restrooms there, which are always big and kept very clean

Conclusion:
Extras: Wifi available in Central World
Fun Fact: The first Triple O’s was opened in downtown Vancouver in 1995. Now there are 44 in Canada, 5 in Hong Kong and one in Bangkok.
