Klong Muang Inn

This has got to be the worst food I have ever been served - anywhere. Because of the heat I fancied something cold and not spicy for a change. I ordered the cold platter with German meat and bread. The servers don't hardly speak a word of English so they did not understand when I asked if the bread was homemade. So one ofthe owners came over and said "yes we bake our bread". I didn't wait long before I was served a plate with two slices of bread and different " german cold cuts". My husband had ordered chicken which was not served for another 25 mins. after my food arrived. We were the only guests there... The bread must have been well over one week old, it was so dry and absolutely tasteless. The meat (cut from a package) didn't even have the plastic wrapping removed and it looked just awfull. I tried a bit a left the rest. The chicken seemed to have been frozen and the deep fried to thaw. Simply the most AWFUL food. A server asked if my food was ok, I said no. The owners were sat at a table and could see us, but they were too busy drinking wine to be bothered.

I slid into this place without breaking step as I glimpsed their sign saying Fredy + Jurgens German Draft and NZ Steaks. I imagine you have to go dig up the rear yard to find Fredy and Jurgen, if indeed they are there they would be rotating at a fair old rate in their graves if they saw what was being served in their names. I was sat down and into my first Non-German Beer before my eyes got accustomed to the dark and I took in my surroundings. Dirty and tired, unused catering equipment abandoned in a corner. The lovely smiley Thai faces were not going to make up for what they served up. Everything on the table was truly terrible, the fillet steak inedible. When I was a young kid at school we had weekly swimming lessons, well it was really more about how you had to teach yourself not to drown. The highlight of the lesson was when the teacher threw in a hard black rubber brick and you had to dive down and recover it. That black brick is alive and well and has a job as a fillet steak impersonator in Thailand. I won’t go on, I guess these people were doing what they thought was right, but they did not seem at all surprised when I asked for and paid the bill without eating more than one mouthful. We moved up the strip to The Elephants End and had our last and rather fine meal in Thailand there. I really do not see this place doing any better. Avoid - unless you miss your school days and an old rubber brick.

Klong Muang is a really nice an quiet place. If you are looking for a place without tourists, this is the place to go! Klong Muang inn was nice, you get what you pay for, and a little more. Staff is very kind, funny and helpfull! A big thank you to Jürgen, who gave us excellent insider tips about Bangkok, that was very helpfull (we were going to Bangkok after out stay in Klong Muang) next to the hotel, there is a massage clinic called Yatavee - that place is highly recommented!! We would love to visit Klond Muang inn again!
