I've always been a sucker for TJ's cheeseburgers and the Rauch Kate's bean dishes, but have recently discovered the Book House & Coffee Shop's excellent homemade chicken or beef soups. They come with onions, tomato, potato, herbs, fresh peppercorns and a hot buttered sesame seed roll. At 100 baht you can't go wrong. Proper meat, too. No skimping!
