Gonna kick-start our series of Bangkok travel posts with our experience at Burger and Lobster! It got quite a number of my friends and followers excited when I posted IG stories while dining there during our CNY trip. Likewise for me, I only knew about Burger and Lobster Bangkok when I chanced upon a photo that my friend had uploaded to her Instagram account and I had to text her to double confirm that there IS a Burger and Lobster in the Land of Smiles. LOL!

So yup, according to a few online sources, Burger and Lobster was supposed to open in March 2017 but there were some delays and it finally opened its doors in September, a good five months later. I guess it is always a wise decision to wait till you are ready! Located at Gaysorn Plaza, just across Erawan Shrine, the nearest BTS station would be Chit Lom. From Chit Lom BTS station, it is just a short two-minute walk to Gaysorn Plaza.

The food menu is conveniently categorised into Starters, Burgers, Lobsters, Rolls, Sides and Sauces. Nobody in our group opted for burger as a main.

Naturally, the camera gets to eat first.

A group shot before our lobster feast. Oh yes, since we were a large group, I made reservations via email and was allocated this huge round table. My MIL likes it because in a way, it symbolises 团圆.

I chose Over The Moon (฿390) because this combination of Beefeater Gin, strawberry, Pimms, rose, cucumber, lemon, fizz sounds delish and I was right!

Not sure who ordered the Truffle Fries (฿290) but it was a bad decision because all our mains came with a large serving of fries! LOL. Major fries overload! I didn’t touch any of it but I think anything with truffle should be good.

The Lobster Mac N Cheese (฿350) was really comfort food with chunks of lobster meat and macaroni generously coated with melted cheese.

The Lobster Croquettes (฿350) were also a hit among all of us. Be sure to eat it with the spicy dip sauce that comes with it!

Besides the Original Roll (฿1500), there are Avocado Roll (฿950) and Chilli Roll (฿950) too. If it’s your first time dining at Burger and Lobster, I would definitely recommend trying the Original Roll for it is a true Burger and Lobster classic of chilled lobster meat dressed in a smooth lemony Japanese mayo.

If you think you might be missing out on a lot since it’s chunks of lobster meat as compared to a whole lobster, fret not. The toasted brioche roll is actually filled with generous chunks of meat to make this a truly satisfying meal.

If you can’t do without chilli, Burger and Lobster offers Chilli Lobster (฿1850) on their menu. The lobster is first steamed and then served in a hot clay pot smothered with an aromatic chilli sauce that has been prepared in-house. You have a choice of rice or warm toasted brioche to go with your chilli lobster.

The most expensive item on the menu, the B&L Thermidor (฿2100) is served as a whole lobster cooked in herbed velouté and mushroom sauce, topped with a cheesy crust. If you like strong-tasting foods, you will definitely enjoy this feast.

The three ladies ordered the Original Lobster (฿1500), with a choice of steamed or grilled lobster. We went for the steamed lobsters as we felt that it was the best way to taste the freshness of the lobster and indulge in its succulent meat. I really liked the B&L’s famous lemon and garlic butter sauce which was addictive!

Oh man, I’m missing this already.

For your next trip to Bangkok, make sure you stop by Burger and Lobster for a treat!
