The wife saw Mona Café a couple doors north of Phetkasim, next to the tesco, and wanted to try it so we went to lunch.
First impression, a large parking lot, great!!
Inside of the restaurant is done very nice and service was excellent. Prices were pretty expensive compared to other places, kind of similar to the restaurants in the big hotels. I ordered pasta with mushrooms and an aged parmesan and the wife ordered lard na moo. First they brought out a free bread basket with 3 types of bread and 3 toppings, an olive tapenade, pesto and oil and balsamic vinegar, all good. They also brought us a free amuse bouche (appetizer for you savages out there). It was an olive, cherry tomato and slice of salami on a skewer stuck in a slice of toast. The main dishes came out and the helpings were large and very tasty. I had a coke, the wife some kind of cold coffee drink. As I mentioned it is expensive, the bill came to 830 baht but it sure filled us up with good quality.
I have to say they have one of the most impressive bars that I’ve seen including a huge selection of scotches (my favorite). I took some pics below of the booze offerings, they also had a good selection of champagnes, wine and mixed drinks.
All in all a nice experience but expensive so it won’t be a weekly stop but we will return (sample some single malts!!).
