Awful awful

Having lived in Bangkok for now over 34 years, i always used to take visitors to C & C as it was a good setting, close to home and better than average Thai food.
I only eat Thai food out at night when the cook has a night off, and when visitors are in town. I never take guests to Baan Khanita or any other "authentic" restaurant because 1) my cook is better than anyone in town and 2)I would rather pay the money and go eat French at Le Bouchon
Well i will probably never go back after my last experience.
We ordered spring rolls, somtam and sticky rice, chicken satays and morning glory as we weren't feeling too hungry.
Well, the spring rolls were far too deep fried and all you could taste was the old oil. The somtam was soggy, not crisp and rather brown, with not much flavour. The sticky rice was dried out and the chicken satays were rubbery and cold. The morning glory was nice though.
I was so disappointed. I realise that is an ultimate tourist attraction, with the condoms instead of mints etc... but a restaurant should be known for it's good food and consistency.
So if you are tourists reading this and want to get some really good Thai food, go one soi down to soi 14 to Suda, you will not be disappointed.
