The MB Café and Restaurant is located at the beginning of Viphavadhi Rangsit Rd in Bangkok and serves absolutely delicious foods and beverages. It’s not only a great place to dine but also a wonderful venue for private parties and weddings.
On the night we were there we started with a delicious appetizer, that being their green apple and tuna salad. It was the perfect combination of tastes between the somewhat tart fresh fruit and the fish all of which were drizzled with a traditional flavor of Thai salad dressing.
Our starter was followed by a dish we were told was a “must,” the Somtam ton orn Tanta Wan with grilled king size river prawn. Traditional Somtam is made with papaya but this is made with sunflower sprouts. “Ton orn Tanta wan” means sunflower sprouts. This is a signature dish at MB Café and one that is famous for not only its taste but also for being so nutritious.
Next up with was their Fried Sun-dried Pork with herbs. We were told the processes to make this dish is to marinate the sun-dried pork with coriander root, black pepper, garlic, and multiple herbs before deep frying with kaffir lime leaves and mushrooms at a very high heat for only 4-5 minutes. By cooking this way, it allows the dish to be crispy on the outside while soft on the inside.
As we were eating traditional Thai it only made sense to end our dinner with the classic Thai desert, sweet mango with sticky rice. The serving was plentiful and appropriately drizzled with sweet creamy coconut syrup.
The MB Café serves authentic Thai food in a nice setting with friendly service. Well worth a visit next time you’re in the city.
