Awesome Thai food at Som Chai Restaurant Seminyak

When you first walk into to Som Chai you are guided by your waitress past a bar on the left, on the right is a young lady dressed in a traditional Thai silk dress, sitting on a swing, fanning herself with a fan.

You then enter the main dining area which is quite large and it was packed. This is a popular restaurant so it is best that you make a reservation before arriving.

The food menu has a great range of traditional Thai food. For entree we had the chicken satay which is served on top of a bowl with a candle inside which keeps the satay warm. A side dish of the satay sauce comes so you can pour as much or as little of the spicy peanut sauce on top of your satay sticks.
