Sanook: Umeda 2-chome, Osaka This luxuriously spacious restaurant serves the kind of high-quality food you might find in a first-class hotel in Bangkok. Perhaps the spices in some dishes are toned down a bit, but the flavors are authentic and distinctive. Tables are comfortably separated, and the soft Thai pop ballads playing in the background help set the mood.
The standard menu is supplemented by monthly specials, and it even includes Thai-style ramen in addtion to the usual curries, salads and soups. Wines from Italy, South Africa, Spain and Thailand are Y3500-4000/bottle. Beers include Singha and Chang as well as unusual Belgian brews that make a nice change of pace and stand up well to spicy flavors.
The Y2500 weekend brunch buffet is highly recommended, and it includes several delectable Thai desserts if you still have room. The weekday lunch buffet is Y1200, while dinner with drinks averages Y5000.
