Thanksgiving Dinner

[Trenton42 51]

Thanksgiving will be here soon, and Americans and bon vivants will be looking for a special meal.

 

While there will be a few bars up and down Sukhumwit offering a plate of turkey and fixings for a couple hundred THB, my experience is that the pub meals are nothing special.

 

For *my* money, the best Thanksgiving dinner can be had at Bourbon Street.

 

The Bourbon Street Thanksgiving Buffet offerings include:

 

• Commander’s Salad

• Spinach Salad

• Fresh Garden Salad

• Fruit Cocktail Mixed Berries Salad

The buffet also includes Coke, Sprite, Diet Coke, bottled water, and iced tea. Bourbon Street also offers a full bar for those that prefer a stiffer drink.

 

It’s a little pricey at 899 THB, but if one likes to eat good food it’s well worth it.

 

The buffet will be available on Thursday from 12 Noon to 10:30 PM.

 

Bourbon Street will offer the same buffet on Friday from 5 PM until closing, with all domestic beers (bottled and draft), cocktails, and liquors for 100 THB. House wine 140 THB.

 

Bourbon Street is located in Washington Square, on Sukhumwit Soi 22.

 

They don’t accept reservations for Thanksgiving, and the buffet is very popular.

 

This will be my 8th Thanksgiving Dinner at Bourbon Street, and I wouldn’t miss it for *anything!*
