El Mercado Bangkok 2021
El Mercado Bangkok 2021, any time I visit this great city this restaurant is on the top of my list. They now have three branches, but so far I have only been to two of them. This photo blog is on their Calle 35 branch at 15/8 M Tower, Sukhumvit 35 Alley, Khlong Tan Nuea, Watthana, Bangkok 10110. Phone: 02 011 1712
A fairly compact venue
However there is also an upstairs section. They have a home delivery service as well as three branches in Bangkok. Check out their website on THIS LINK.
Quite a stylish unique fitout
All products provided by El Mercado will be delivered as per strict temperature control: – Seafood 2 to 5 degrees . – Dairy 4 to 10 degrees
Bread, pastries & croisants
After you dine make sure you take some of these home for later. 🙂
Here is an outdoor area for the smokers
It would be ok to sit here at night but certainly not at lunch time.
Here is what I always order.
Oysters from France, beautiful Fine de Clare No 3.
B886 or $36 AUD, quite a good price for Bangkok, although I get them for $23 at L’Auberge in Pattaya. These were Fine de Clare No 3.
The Fines de Claires Oysters are exclusively produced in the Marennes-Oléron basin in France. They have an elongated shell which makes them easily recognizable.
The Fines de Claires Oysters are less fleshy than normal oysters and have a softer-coloured flesh. The Fines de Claires Oysters are rich in water and have a stronger, slightly sweeter taste thanks to the « affinage” made in ponds connected to seawater during the last weeks of the farming.
Lots of wine available
A very important addition. 🙂
Sauces & mustards etc
As well as the wine, make sure to take home some condiments.
El Mercado started with 4 people “doing it all”, 6 tables, 10 cheeses and cold-cuts, a coffee machine and lot’s of ideas, dreams and hopes.
As a concept, El Mercado means “Market” in Spanish and it refers to a place to find a variety of the fresher and finest foods, usually seasonal, at a reasonable prices. Check out their fabulous seafood on THIS LINK.
