Bangkok Poutine

Banglamphu


You've conquered the deep-fried scorpion, now wrangle with poutine: French fries topped with cheese curds and gravy. Run by guys from Québec, this is the place to go for Francophone pop and the latest hockey game, as well as dishes ranging in cuisine from Thai to Lebanese, including lots of meat-free items.
