Thanks to calamari I found Dory
And the lemon grass juice transported me back to those late afternoons long ago when Ma would start preparing dinner and would send me to the backyard to get a sprig of lemon grass that she would add to her fat mackerel soup.
I like calamari; been eating bowls and plates of the rings from time to time since falling in love with them hanging out late 90s in Planet Hollywood - a place which seems to have disappeared from view along Bangkok's Ploen Chit Road.
That's how a little hankering led me to Dory
I was admiring the dainty windows and staring at the ceiling while waiting for my food. Aren't these chandeliers reminiscent of anchors?
But then of course it's seafood and Dory
If I could not associate the words I might as well start imagining a trident before Ariel and Flounder come gliding by.
But what do you do when your order takes long to arrive and you're waiting in the midst of Greek-inspired deco?
I went traipsing Kalokairi to the tune of Mamma Mia but in my seat on -
L5,5006-5007, Zone San Francisco, Sukhumvit Road Soi 19, Terminal 21, North Klong Toei, Wattana, Bangkok 10110.
