I think the 10 per cent discount might be because their is NO VAT on takeout orders ??

I guess Dukes will clarify.

He he Posted Image a negative vote for this comment........bring it on baby.

In fact I'm getting negative votes for anything mentioning Dukes......oh the jealousy Posted Image

Perhaps Dukes should do a promotion which offered steaks that were properly cooked and didn't take all night to chew!

Just been to another restaurant in town by the river. The service was appalling and the food was marginally better than poor. Perhaps you think I'm fussy. I'm not over fussy but the lack of service in some restaurants around here just amazes me, especially at a time when businesses should be fighting for business.

The negative or positive posts should be for content but too often are used to attack the poster. I have given ianf a plus to compensate, he has a right to his opinion.

And service is not ALWAYS good here

Since my first visit to Thailand, back in 1987, I've liked the Thai food better from the little back soi stalls/restaurants all around than from the hi-so 5-star hotel type.Seems to have more flavor coming from a black, crusty seasoned wok.  I love Thai food, spicey and all, but when I get a craving for a good steak with baked potato and veggies then I visit Banrai Steak House next to the golf course adjacent to Airport Plaza. They also serve Thai food. Prices are good too.


I would not hesitate to recommend the Wanlamun restaurant, Chiang Moi Rd. soi 2. For both quality of the food and price.
If you have not been there before, make the effort its worth it.
A tip:- when entering the air conditioned room the pastry counter is there on your left, make your choice on entering, tell the waitress to regard them as sold. I say this as other diners who have finished their meal have a habit of buying up several of the cakes, sometimes there are none left by the time it comes around to the sweet course of your meal.


My favourites are (in no particular order)

The new Burmese place just down from Thapae Gate
Ginger House (superb service and a great choice on the menu)
Cote Jardin (knock's spots off the Crystal and it's a lot cheaper. I had the best steak in there that I've ever had a couple of days ago)
Khaoman KhaoFao - (probably spelt totally wrong but its the jungle restaurant situated between the Canal Road and the Hang Dong Road on the road that goes to the night safari)
My Kitchen: (I cook for friends once a year, it takes me three days to prepare the meal, but its delicious even though I say so myself!!!!!)
The salad restaurant near Airport Plaza (always fresh and lovely, like the staff)

Use the rest before you come to burger king.

I know several people who LOVE The Duke's fish and chips. They are not British style so I have not ever bothered with them myself -as that is the style that I prefer - but some people certainly like them.

Duke's Express in Bangkok seems quite different from the Chiang Mai version. Much more like a fast food joint, and the food I've tried definitely tastes different than the same dishes served up north. Have you had a chance to try it yet UG?
