Chu ? Best brunch in Bangkok ? Bangkok I love you

Chu is easily my favourite place to eat Brunch in Bangkok. Situated in Exchange Tower on the Asoke Junction it is easily accessible via the sky train, and unlike some of the fancier brunch locations you can turn up looking a bit worse for wear in your flip-flops. Most of the time booking aren?t needed, so you can have that extra long lie in if needed.

Chu?s has been open for almost two years and it has always been a favourite place of ours for tea and cake. Recently we?ve been coming more and more frequently to load up on carbs and sweet treats on Sunday mornings. There is always tons of English reading material (BK Magazine, The Nation, Bangkok Post and others), free wi-fi and comfy chairs to lose yourself in. The choice of music and films running is delightfully eclectic and always makes me feel that I would be good friends with whoever is making the selection.

The main reason we keep coming back is the amazing food. They serve great versions of the usual breakfast fare (Pancakes, American Breakfast, blueberry muffins) but ?we tend to go for the dishes that stand out from the every day crowd, such as the egg white frittata with smoked salmon, mozzarella, cherry tomatoes and caramelised onion,?French?toast with cream cheese and fresh?strawberries?and blueberries or lemon curd, paninis with beef and mozarella and the light and crispy churros with cinnamon sugar that give the caf? its name.

The ingredients used are a huge part of what makes it taste so great. French butter and chocolate, light and fluffy breads, fresh fruit and quality cheese. The coffee is tasty too with a great selection of tea (with free hot water refills). The drink selection is almost as impressive as the food but it takes a lot to sway me from their selection of chocolate drinks.

The only two niggles I have with the place are its less than romantic location (in an office block) and that they keep the air con on so high. Perhaps it?s to hurry the customers on their way, as it would be easy for brunch to segue into afternoon tea and perhaps even dessert themed cocktails.
