We have enjoyed lunch for many years at Bangkok Royal near the Baylor campus. The popular spot out-grew that location, and moved to this new site about a month ago. While the old place was pleasant, the new place is specatacular -- new tables and chairs, new china, and many new wall hangings.

The food, however, is the same -- excellent. They also have a new expanded menu with lots of variations on our old favorites. The food is hot and plentiful. The jasmine rice is especially good.
Great place for something truly different for dinner or lunch. Our only complaint is the noise level. The concrete block walls need some acoustic materials to absorb the sound.
