UDON SOCIAL

That's been there as long as I can remember, unless relocated or new set up. Smaller version with basically same menu. Used to eat there before finding the one at OP.

That's it, 39, as used to be the pork steak price..........maybe still is.

Welcome to the forum Super T. *****^^
And as Super T says, I think the one at NPJ, Relax 39, is the original and has been there for years. I think it was one on the first places I ate in Udon some 8 - 9 years ago! They then opened the air conditioned restaurant some time after, which is still great value and just down the road for me. ++)(*

If's the same place I thinking of it is named Relax 39 (orange sign) and is the original. Has been open for maybe 4 or 5 years, Relax Place come along after. Not sure if same ownership remains, but heard tell that Relax 39 open Relax Place.

I agree 100% that the food is very good, that's why Harmony Bar works together with relax for our weekly buffet

Thanks Pompui, prices sound very reasonable, this place will be certain for a visit,

Went today at opening time. 11am-9.30pm.TW says avoid coming here about 4pm as loads of schoolkids descend upon the place.
Beer drinkers,large Leos 70,Heineken 90,Singha 80.ice 10 baht,Spy cooler 49,coffee 20.
Some food options for you Joey1957.

Mushroom or Corn soup 29 baht,Onion rings 29 (6 pieces),Garlic bread 29 (6 pieces),American fried rice 49.
As stated by LA,Pork steak small 49/large 69 and comes with sweetcorn,carrots,chips.Pork chop steak 99/129,Salmon fish steak 149/169,Mackerel fish steak 129,Cabanara 59,Spicy NZ mussels salad 129.
Plenty of choice for TW's with spicy salads 49/69,green curry 79,spicy raw prawns 89 (10 prawns),chicken basil with egg 69,Spicy beef salad 149.
More extensive menu than our other eating hole Faroh House but similar foods on offer.The Beef is Thai/French.We like to order same dishes and compare with Faroh,maybe slighly biased that we prefer the spicy prawns and the spicy beef than at Relax.Also the onion rings here are much thicker than there but first time for me here and left bloated,excellent value for money,prompt service.
We did order the chicken basil and were surprised they included mushrooms in the dish,a first for both of us.The garlic bread is better than Faroh in taste and value.


On a sidenote, when leaving to head back into town noticed about 150 metres on the right a place called Lemongrass Restaurant that was advertising lunch buffet 11am-3pm at 129 baht so will try and report at a later date about that place.

So overall impressed with Relax,shame no umbrellas if want to dine outside and you have to duck when entering as the picture shows a stringy plant hanging down.Hate to think that Roy could get entangled in that if he ever tries the place :o

Joey1957,go and enjoy ++)(*

What else is on the menu here?, from the photos it looks a nice place to spend the afternoon,
