One of the nice things about living in a city with over 12 million people is the fact that there are so many different food options! Growing up in the Midwest of the United States I got my fair share of meats, vegetables, and cheese! I also have grown to appreciate the food from south of the border that being Mexican food. Living in a South East Asian country you would think it might be difficult to get good Mexican food here, Well I am here to tell you that would be incorrect. I would like to introduce you to my favorite 2 Mexican restaurants here in Bangkok. There are several others in the city and I have tried them all but religiously find my self going back to these two.
The best Mexican food place in Bangkok is Sunrise Tacos. Now before you run off to one of their 5 locations I would like to emphasis that the original Sunrise located on Sukhumvit Road just before Soi 12 is by far the best. I say this mostly because of the salsa bar but the deciding factor is that it is open 24 hours a day 7 days a week. I have frequented there I can remember how many times in the late night hours.
Sunrise has also just got a much needed outdoor seating area that replaces the car park that was in front for several years. This is an excellent place to get a drink when the sun goes down. You can relax take in all the sights and sounds of the city.
Almost finished with the concrete outside Sunrise. |
Second Place and I have only tried the Bangkok location one time so most of this review is based on when I lived in Chiang Mai and was a regular burrito eater is El Diablos. The newer location is at the end of Sukhumvit Soi 22 all the way to at the end. I would suggest taking a motorbike if you are walking.
