Prachak

Prachak Review

This little place with bare walls and tile floor serves superb ped (roast duck) and moo daeng (red pork) and is a favorite of many locals. Wealthy Thai families will send their maids here to bring dinner home; you may want to follow their lead, as it can get crowded. Whether you eat in or take out, get here early—by 6 pm there's often no duck or pork left, and by 9 pm it's closed. Finding Prachak is a bit challenging. It's on busy Charoen Krung (New Road), across the street from the big Robinson shopping center near the Shangri-La Hotel.
