My Thoughts:

Let me preface this review with the fact that I love this restaurant so much I’ve eaten there twice in the past 10 days.

Other than the not-very-obvious sidestreet location, Eat Me is perhaps Bangkok’s best kept secret in its field.  The ambiance is set before you even get on to the property and as you walk through the courtyard towards the steps to the dining area there’s almost a sense of mystique about it.  The dining room is on the second and third floors, with both outside and indoor tables available.  The approach to the stairwell is minimalistic yet adorned with candles and other contemporary reminders you’re walking towards something quite extraordinary.

Once seated you will find the waiting staff very attentive and wonderfully fluent in English.

The clientele seems to draw mainly from expats and tourists but this restaurant is by no means a ‘tourist trap’.  In fact, I overheard one couple mentioning an article where Eat Me is vying for top rankings amongst the most exquisite restaurants in Bangkok.

The food is a great mix.  My favorite main course is the beef tenderloin with peppercorn sauce and a side of dijon mustard.  My wife tried the Alaskan King Crab and while it tasted fantastic, you could tell it had spent some time in the freezers with importation to Thailand, but she’d order it again.

Let me tell you about dessert!  I’ve been around the world, to some of the finest restaurants on practically every continent and I’m by no means a ‘chocolate freak’ but their chocolate fudge cake is the absolute best dessert I’ve ever had the pleasure of gracing my palate.  I liked it so much I ordered an entire cake the next day just to have at home.  They prepared it, along with the chocolate topping-sauce and concise instructions for making it perfect every time.

If you’re looking for fine dining and aren’t fiending for local Thai Food per se, Eat Me is an absolute must-experience.  Expect to spend about 3,000THB or $100 without wine, or 4-7,000THB with wine (depending if you order the pricey-but-worth-every-satang tenderloin too!).   Eat Me is easily one of Bangkok’s best kept fine dining experiences and if you haven’t been there you’re definitely missing out.  I know I’ll be going back this week again!
