My Thoughts:

This is hands down one of the best values on Italian restaurants in central Bangkok.  The food is absolutely awesome and you can see it being prepared in the totally open kitchen area.  This restaurant is located on the ground floor of the Narai Hotel (tell a taxi drive, Na-Lai, Si-lome) and the ambiance is contemporary and cheery.  The staff is attentive and while sometimes the food takes a couple minutes longer than I’d like, the range of flavors available easily make up for it.

They make many types of pizzas with their own touch (for instance, the pepperoni pizza has some red peppers sprinkled on top).  They have perhaps the meanest seared Ahi-tuna salad with balsamic dressing (pepper crusted) I’ve ever had.  This is not only uber-healthy it also doesnt break the bank for a great lunchtime, under 300bht for the salad.

Peperoni has pure gastronomic bliss, cover to cover in its menu.  It has things I’ve never even heard of before and when I went out on a limb and gave these ‘different’ dishes a try I was consistently amazed.  From their triangle, tasty deep fried bread, to the rustic pizzas, meat(liver) ravioli, baked tortellini Alfredo topped off with some chestnuts (waternuts,walnuts?) down to the tiramasu and espresso.   Magnificent!  One of my favorite places to eat in Bangkok, bar none.

The clientele is predominantly farang tourists, but I’ve seen a good deal of local Thais there as well.  Trust me, this place is all that and then some.

*oh, and I don’t know why they spell Peperoni like that, it must be the proper Italian spelling, shrug.
