| The setup: The oldest Mexican restaurant in Bangkok – 25 years this year – serves both Tex-Mex and Mexican dishes in a great location on Sukhumvit Soi 11. You can also expect some of the strongest, freshest margaritas in town. |  |
  |  Signature dishes: The fajitas (B410), featuring a choice of Australian beef, chicken, prawns, or a combination, always go down a treat. The Chicken mole (B250), made with dark chocolate and six different types of chili is well-worth a try, and the Chili Con Queso (B195) never fails to delight with its mouthwatering mix of melted imported cheese, shredded chicken and chili. It’s a deal: Every Tuesday, from 5pm-Midnight, all margaritas and sangria are half price. It gets packed every week and bookings are essential. 1/23 Sukhumvit Soi 11. Open Tues-Sun, Noon-11pm; Mon, 5pm-11pm. No kids after 8pm (when the vibe is more like a bar). 02 651 2215, facebook.com/charleybrownsmexicana. It's all about balance: “Mexican food combines many powerful flavours,” says Charley Brown's manager and co-owner, Dave Bell. “There’s chili, cumin, lime, cilantro, onion and garlic – so it’s very important to ensure a perfect balance between them. Charley Brown’s has always prided itself on using the freshest ingredients and making every dish to order. We can tailor every dish to suit the guest’s palate and spice tolerance.” |
