Chateaubriand House of Steak is brand new, it just opened May 18, 2012 in The Promenade shopping mall. In this posh new mall there are lots of great restaurants but Chateaubriand looked the best at first glance. The food was delicious, the service was very good, and the atmosphere is nice. For 2 people the cost was about 1000 baht. It’s worth checking out!

The Menu: There are a lot of different steaks, from grilled sirloins, seared salmon, blackened cod in arrabiata sauce, pork chops with shitake mushrooms in a cream sauce, grilled beef ribeyes, rack of lamb steaks and also some basic pasta dishes too. There’s also a couple of desserts (only 2 on the menu at this time).
What I Ate: I tried the seared salmon, was also very tender, juicy, laying in a bed of spinach and cream sauce. The grilled sirloin steak, tasted so juicy and tender, almost as if it’s a roasted beef, it was delicious. Also a side order of french fries, they were great too, they are the crinkle cut type, I love those!
The Staff: Very friendly and helpful, no problems there!
The Bathroom: It’s right nearby Chateaubriand, walk outside the restaurant and The Promenade provides very clean and fancy restrooms.

I was told by my Esplanade customer service rep that Sukhumvit 23 and Siam Paragon California Wow’s will stay open. So yesterday, Sunday July 22nd I went to Suk23 location and it’s closed with a sign that says:

“Dear Members, please be inform that building electrician found that our instigated circuit has a problem and it will be fixed by Monday, The club is closure on Saturday 21st and Sunday 22nd July 2012 and will operate as normal on Monday 23rd July 2012. Sorry for your inconvenience.”

So today, Monday July 23rd I go there expecting a great long workout, and it’s STILL not open 🙁

Sign this weekend, about closing for the weekend

Sign Caliwow Suk23 power problems

Today, Monday, still not open as the sign says they would be 🙁

Sukhumvit23 Caliwow closed today

This is really horrible, I seen so many other disappointed California Wow members going up and reading the sign, frustrated and disappointed. I really wish Caliwow can at least inform it’s members properly, open some kind of solid line of communication. Even their own employees were there reporting to work to see that it’s not open today!

EDIT: California Wow at Esplanade (Ratchada branch) is now open 🙂

Anymore info about California Wow and it’s problems, opinions, or anything please let me know by contacting me
