Greyhound cafe is no stranger to Bangkok, but this another hound cafe in Siam Paragon Bangkok is not just another cafe that you think you could get by. If you think so, we are sorry you may have just missed one of the best modern & chic Thai food in town. First of all, do not get carried away by its western style ambience and deco as they may look very expensive and yet it is actually a casual dining. Don't judge the book by its cover as it can be quite deceiving if you do not discover it by yourself to see what they are actually serving. The group of company beside selling their chic and edgy apparels with all the hounds (Greyhound, Playhound, Anotherhound) in which that was how they started their business before venturing into lifestyle cafe(s) in which they have excelled and won many fans throughout South East Asia.
As for the menu, the half sized deep fried chicken wings in fish sauce (mini chicken wings) is a must order, too crispy until you can swallow the bones and we are not kidding. The steamed NZ mussels with lemon grass and white wine sauce is to die for, especially when you dip the toast into the sauce.
The spicy grilled lamb is sensational, the hint of mint & chili brought out the best of the meat especially where lamb is rare in Thai cooking. We have to say we are quite disappointed with the Light Tom Yum Goong with ravioli, not to say the presentation looks like yesterday leftover and also too watery, the taste is probably one of the worst we ever have in the land of smile. This fusion doesn't work!
Nevertheless, Greyhound cafe is a must stop when you come to Bangkok next, the price is more than reasonable from what you could have imagined, many other restaurant entrepreneurs tried to copy their concept in the neighbourhood country like Malaysia and Singapore but you can't copy their recipe and their daring wishes. Recently, there are more and more cafes opened through out the city and that explains why!
