Visited Kampang on a weekday evening around 5pm, and while there were some tables available, it's clear this place is popular, so reservations are recommended. The grilled chicken was tasty but a bit tricky to eat as the meat stuck to the bone. The meat dishes, though flavorful, were a tad chewy. The vanilla jasmine lemon tea wasn't to my liking. Prices are on the higher side, and the staff seemed a bit slow in responding to customers.

The Pork & Beef Sukiyaki and charcoal-grilled dishes are decent, though the service can be slow. The Kemuri wagyu don stands out and is recommended. They offer convenient sets for one person, complete with rice and side dishes. Note that advance reservations are available only for the 5 PM table.
The quality of food at 71 Mookata is decent, with prices that won't break the bank. While the dipping sauce is heavy on MSG, it's to be expected. Be prepared for a bit of a wait during dinner hours, as it can take around 30 minutes to get seated.

We had an incredible dining experience at Somboon Seafood, and even my picky-eating parents were impressed. The crab curry was delicious, and the morning glory in garlic was fresh and crunchy. As the original branch, it holds a special charm, and we're already planning our next visit when we're back in Thailand.
