Bei Otto

This is Bangkok's best German restaurant, opened in 1980 by Otto Duffner and nowadays an institution. Large platesful of traditional German fare are served up in a spacious main dining room, where pictures of Otto with celebrity guests decorate the walls. The new dining area is a little more intimate and cozy but perhaps best of all is the attached bakery, where you can buy delicious bread, cakes and rolls. It has also a German pub and a deli. Best bets here include the Bavarian Platter and Farmer's Brunch, and Bei Otto also specializes in 3 liter beer towers of Erdinger and Furstenberg lagers.
