Swiss Chalet Restaurant, Lamai

Swiss Chalet Restaurant, Lamai

It's been a while that I have done a restaurant review, but in the last week I've been twice to the Swiss Chalet in Lamai for dinner and if you're in to decent Swiss/German food, this may well be your place in Lamai.



The first time I went, I shared a nice meat fondue for two, listed as a Fondue Chinoise, which had plenty of beef, pork and chicken to fill two easily! We also had a nice bottle of South African red wine, very affordable at just a bit under 1.000,-THB for the bottle. A real nice find.



The Swiss Chalet is located in Lamai center, next to the Bauhaus, on a crossing, directly at the corner and opened in December 2006.


If you find yourself in Lamai and you're up for a good and decent meal, this is the place to be and well worth a visit with also a Thai menu and Kobe steaks.


Here's my starter, from the Special of the day menu; Italian noodles with 4 sorts of cheese. A real tasty, creamy and filling choice which filled me with delight and my arteries with cholesterol.



This is my main, a Koeniginpastetli mit nudeln, erbsli und Rebli or in English; "Vol au Vent" stuffed puff pastry with creamed chicken, veal sausage cubes and mushrooms, accompanied with noodles, sweet peas and carrots.

Another dish on the table was some outstanding Eisbein mit sauerkraut (800 grams), salzkartoffeln und senf. A massive and well tasting pickled pork knuckle!

It went together with that excellent South African red wine again.

They also serve some good looking breakfasts, for the early risers and carry a children menu.

Hope you enjoy your meal!
