Bangkok EatParties / More Little Beast

Not much to report from Bangkok. I worked and ate and got massages. Didn't go out and explore the city all that much. Fun for me boring for you.

We did go to Little Beast again, the day after we already went to Little Beast. I was supposed to have dinner with my former bride and groom Billy & Fai (did I never blog about their epic wedding back in October? oops sorry. maybe someday) but his dad got sick and they had to fly to California. So I *had* to have dinner at Little Beast instead. Boo hoo poor me.

This night we got a few different things off the menu.

Steak-cut fries with truffle aioli...


Of course no meal is complete without a DKMB...


Teeheeeheeee!!!


We also got some Chicken/Fennel sausages...


(Still obsessed with my meatball for obvious reasons, one of them being its CHEESE FILLING.)


Asparagus/Watercress/Shaved Parmesan Salad...


Kobe mini-sliders w jalapeno. YUM.


Oh I was obsessed with the Iberico ham that they put in the Mac & Cheese yesterday so I made it known to Chef Nan and she gave me a special side of it. YUMMY


We put it on our mini-burgers. If you think bacon is the greatest thing in the world you are wrong because you have never had Iberico. HEAVEN


And as a grand finale we had the 15-hour Braised Lamb Shoulder OH MY GOD


Chef Nan also brought out some Sardine Bruschettas because they are new and she wanted them photographed but yuck I did not touch that sh*t. Also I was dying of food coma.


FOOD COMA.........


Just kidding! WE WANT MORE WE ARE OBEASTS!!!!!


We had the Banana Pudding Panna Cotta. The sugar-crusted banana slices dipped in banana pudding and coated with a little caramel are like little bites of banana creme-brulee and make my underpants all wet just thinking about them.


SOOOO GOOOD


Love watching these ladies run their eat-empire!!!


The day after, on my last day in town, TL dropped in to visit (she now lives in Jakarta).

I just love my Princess friends because they just jump on a plane and visit me whenever I'm in Asiatown. (I promise I will FINALLY post pics from our Shanghai trip last October. I color-corrected them on the plane ride home yesterday!)

We started with happy hour drinks and snacks at TL's fab hotel, the Metropolitan Bangkok.


These baby chicken lollipops were REALLY TASTY.


And the Satay wasn't bad either.


Because we'd gone to Little Beast two nights in a row, we decided to check out a new gastropub owned by Tee and Nan's friend so we could size up the competition.



We had a Crab Penne in a Lemon Caper Cream sauce...


Some Bone Marrow Bruschetta...


Parmesan Fries...


A Lamb Shank with a big old sausage accompaniment...


Pork and Veal Fettucine Bolognese, by far the best dish...


And for dessert...Banana Cream Pie...


And a red velvet something with rum sauce...


Tasty...but not even close to as life-changing as Little Beast. I'm not biased or anything.

But seriously. LITTLE BEAST FOREVER.
