Thailand Day 2 - Part 2 Waterside

It was a long trip back to Bangkok after Ayuthaya and straight for an early dinner at Waterside Restaurant at Ram Inthra. As it was just before 6PM, the place was still quite empty...







The sun was just setting beautifully...




As you can see, Waterside is a beautiful restaurant on stilts... built on the shores of a small lake.

The Thais don't trust their tap water, so we often had bottled water...







And sometimes, even Singha!




Anyway we had some gorgeous seabass with nam pla (fish sauce) and chili dip...










Some thai otak otak (hor muk)...




Wonderful tod mun goong (prawn cakes) that were HUGE...




And of course, tomyam goong (tomyam with big head prawns). The gravy was thick with coconut milk and stuff that came from the prawn heads!










Waterside got really packed from 7pm onwards. The crowd was amazing and parking extended until the roadside/highway. People were queueing patiently for a table and the crowd had a lot of couples on dates too! No surprise since the restaurant had a stunning setting and good food. The photos speak for themselves!
