A new place opened just beside Raya Grand hotel, or beside Walrus Pub. It is called “Steak Story” and if you are looking for a cheap steak, that place is difficult to beat!
The place looks nice and was playing good music, not too loud.
For about 95 baht, I got a fish steak, with salad, fries and sauce. It wasn’t the best I had in my life, but for that price, I can’t complain. See below.

About Isaan Cuisine
The Isaan region of northeastern Thailand has its own distinct culinary tradition, influenced by Lao and Khmer cultures. Signature dishes include som tam (spicy papaya salad), larb (spiced minced meat salad), sticky rice (khao niao), and grilled chicken (gai yang). Food in Isaan tends to be spicier and more sour than central Thai food, using ingredients like padaek (fermented fish sauce) and fresh herbs.
