#DINEWITHME: MANGKORN SEAFOOD | DIN DAENG (BANGKOK)

399 Bath to satisfy that craving for BBQ Seafood? Gosh...you must be kidding me!

Popular among the locals, MANGKORN SEAFOOD Restaurant is a heaven for all seafood lovers. Located in Din Daeng area, this restaurant offers All-You-Can-Eat Seafood BBQ including drinks for only 399 bath per person! Crack the crabs or shell the prawns as many as you can for up to 1 hour 45 minutes. One thing, beer aren't FREE FLOW now! Opsss...


To get here, the best way is to take a taxi ride from the nearest Huai Khwang MRT Station or direct from your destination. If you wanted to give a try by walking to the restaurant, be ready, it's going to be a painful job. I almost lost my breath being a dare devil trying to be "adventurous" that day..haha..

The crowds were already crazy when the time I arrived, around 8.30pm local time. We have to wait for a good 15 minutes before the next table is available. Smoking hot with no air-conditioner, MANGKORN SEAFOOD uses charcoal fire at each table to BBQ the food.



For 399 bath, you can choose from a variety types of seafood such as crabs, fresh river prawns, squids, mussels, fish, scallops, oysters, bamboo clams or seasoned meat. The seafood is replenished consistently when stock is low. So don't be greedy. Everyone will get to enjoy. Unfinished food will be charged 100 bath per person.

One thing that caught my attention is the Make-Your-Own Som Tum station. Customers will have to make their own with the fresh ingredients provided with no recipe. It was fun to make one, so I whipped up my own plate of Salted Crab Thai Salad (Som Tum Thai Pboo) after observing how the local Thai lady makes one.

Fresh River Prawns - Larger than my hands!



To dine like a local at a local's favourite here in Bangkok was an incredible experience. I had a good time dining at MANGKORN SEAFOOD. Despite the heat and the after smell, the seafood here is nonetheless worth the visit.
