So in the last post I mentioned how I left Bed Supper Club to find another place to go, right? We were looking for this place called Taksura. It’s a restaurant/bar with a few different locations. They’re all kind of hidden under your nose in the city. They’re hard to find, with signs only in Thai, and you almost have to already know they’re there to get to them.
On Sunday we were looking for one location of Taksura, which I’m still not sure exists. We couldn’t find it, so Sunday ended disappointingly.
Yesterday, though, I had to go buy my 2,800 baht purse at Jaspal (softest leather ever), so we went back to Terminal 21 and then Central World to get some GIANT size Monobos. On Sunday night, the cab driver had pointed out that there was a Taksura near Siam, so we decided we’d try to find it for dinner.
There’s this travelfish article about Taksura which gives you directions to a few locations. We wanted to find the supposedly Ratchadamri one. Farang article was wrong! It’s actually near the Ratchathewi BTS. Luckily, we’d been there before, so we knew the area.
So Taksura is hidden in this tiny soi. You walk down the soi, past a few other restaurants, and then you see this little sign in Thai. A really easy to miss sign. Then you walk a little bit down a path and walk through this little doorway thing into an outdoor seating area.
It’s an adorable place – I love outdoor restaurants. This place was packed, and it was a Monday night. I’d love to go there on the weekend when a band plays. I think it’d be so fun. I feel like this place was the most Thai place I’ve been to. A lot of Thai people know about Taksura, though, so it’s not super unknown. I still think it has a very Thai hipster feel to it, though.
I only took one picture, but I will definitely take more next time.
The food was fantastic. That cashew chicken is one of the best things I’ve had in Thailand. There have been 2 things I’ve eaten that really blew my mind, and this is one of them. The other is a fantastic bowl of noodles in front of a 7-11 down my street.
I’m really excited to go back again, and take more pictures, and try to find all the other locations! It’ll be a good adventure
