Chaophraya

This Thai restaurant took over one of the most amazing buildings in Castle St (Edinburgh) earlier in the year; the fact that makes the building amazing is not other than the rooftop overlooking the castle to the left, and the sea to the right. And when in that rooftop you manage to get the best table, you’re close to heaven – and not only because you’re at a certain altitude – but because in Fringe time there are fireworks at the end of the Tatoo and you can see them whilst enjoying some Tamarind Duck.

The food was really tasty, as it tends to happen with Thai food given all the aromas that they add to the dishes. The service is also really good, even overwhelming at some stages when we had to actually ask for a time out to anyone asking anything. The price is also correct, as the sizes of the portions are quite big. But again, just the location makes the place worth the visit even if it just for drinks.
