Banmai Chay Nam Restaurant

Banmai Chay Nam Restaurant is located on Mittraphap Road, Pak Chong district of Nakhon Ratchasima province.  If you drive from Bangkok towards Nakhon Ratchasima, the restaurant is on the left hand side, so watch out for the restaurant’s sign that say “Banmai Chay Nam,” in front of little street.

  Decoration of the restaurant reminds us of Ampawa floating market at first sight and after we had a chance to talk to the owner, we found out that they are both from Ampawa district.  Now we know where all the inspiration came from!

  When you get passed the entrance, you will notice that all areas of Banmai Chay Nam are decorated with old furniture, tools and utilities.  For Thais who has been through those ages these utilities would remind them of the old time very well.  And if you look at the opposite side, you can see mock shops that represent Thai life in the old days.   We ended up losing an hour before we get to the restaurant.
