Description

This Vanilla branch offers all your favorites from its sisters at Siam Square and Siam Paragon, but has an advantage of a quieter atmosphere (thanks to a lack of spoiled teenagers). Service is also superior to other outlets, and the interior exudes Vanilla’s trademark neo-Victorian charm. Desserts are to-die-for.

( HSBC Dining Guide, BK#178, Mar 23, 2007)

-------------------

An upscale, more stylish version of S&P, Vanilla at Playground! has everything from the original Vanilla Industry at Siam (except mediocre). They've added some Asian dishes to the mix, all served in Vanilla's neo-Victorianism atmosphere. Like Siam, it's usually packed in the evenings. There is also a bigger version at Siam Paragon.

VISA DINING GUIDE 2006

--------------------------Usually filled up in the evenings, this branch has all your favorites from Vanilla Industry at Siam plus additional Asian items on the menu. Vanilla is spacier and more sophisticated but still exudes its trademark charm-everything from the interiors to the menus are uttery precious. The food is just as delightful with yummy comfort foods and tantalizing desserts galore.
