Bangkok Street
Thai food is very popular in Sweden. Phuket is one of the most popular destinations for Swedes in winter and there are many inhabitants with Thai roots in the country. Obviously, Thai food is everywhere. From small street kitchens, to larger and high-class restaurants. Bangkok Street, situated on Linnégatan right across Hagabion is somewhere in the middle. Somewhat fancy, somewhat basic.
The portion size is quite large as well, and you get quite a good amount of food for the price point. But this can be a disadvantage, as the last bites of the stir fry become quite difficult to swallow due to the richness and saltiness of the sauce. Both dishes are served with rice that is on the average side and too small of a portion.
In the end, you will be full and have had an alright experience. But this is more of a lunch place than anything else. How it can survive on Linnégatan by being always empty (I have been here 3 times) is unclear to me. Okay for once in a while and if you are in the neighbourhood.
Price:
Vegan dish: 129 - 149 SEK
The Verdict
Bangkok Street is an average experience. While the design of the place is done with some care, the service is non-existent, and the food is only okay. They make up for it with the cheap price and large portions, but in the end, it’s a forgettable experience.
