The stakes are high for Mad Cow, which, having spent its early years stacking up praise on Bangkok’s food-truck circuit, has settled down in Asoke beside burger veteran Chef Bar.

 

The signature Madcow burger (charcoal bread, beef, cheddar, bacon and their secret sauce, B250) is up to the task.

 

Providing extra support at the rugged, red and black venue is the Fatcow (B350), a feat of food architecture that doubles up on paddies, bacon and gooey layers of cheese.
