The Three Peacocks – Open Air BBQ Experience



The Lobsters

The Three Peacocks at Labrador Park is an outdoor dining destination for those charcoal BBQ lovers. My first encounter with this open fire charcoal BBQ is at New Rod Fai Night Market in Bangkok, where they sell the seafood BBQ. At The Three Peacocks ('TTP') the menu goes beyond seafood and they incorporate the flavours of Western, Korean and Thai cuisines.

Part of The Dining Area

TPP is located in the green open area at Labrador Park. It is an open-air barbecued buffet restaurant, where you can enjoy extensive of offerings under the beautiful sky. Once you are seated, the service staff will bring the table BBQ pit, loaded with charcoal and you are ready to proceed with your BBQ. As it is an open-air environment, expect your clothes to be smelly at the end of the dining session here.

Charcoal BBQ

Charcoal BBQ with Mash

Top of the list for BBQ here is their lobster. Each person allowed to claim one each. Bring your payment receipt to the fish tanks area to claim your lobster. The lobster will take a long time to BBQ, and you need to keep an eye on it so it does not get overcooked. It is better that you don't cook them all at once.

Lobsters on Fire

Prawns and Bamboo clams are highly recommended by me. When you put it on the mash, the clams will be the first one to be cooked, following that are the prawns. They both taste springy, juicy and fresh. I ate it without any sauce. There are some dipping sauce you can choose from, but it looks like everyone is going for the homemade chilli sauce.

Prawns

Bamboo Clams

TTP also have crabs, crayfishes, oysters, scallops, salmon fish, stingray and other seafood as well. The offering is very extensive, it just depends on what you like. I personally don't like BBQ oysters, so I go for crayfishes instead.

Crayfishes & Pork Belly

Crayfish Meat

Crabs

For the meat, it is marinated in Korean and Thai flavour. They offer thick cut pork belly, marinated beef short ribs, pork bulgogi, spicy pork. The meat is good to be grilled with direct fire, unfortunately, if you are a clean freak, the black colour mash from extensive BBQing will definitely turn you off. You can get aluminium foil to cover the mash, but it is almost useless as the food easily sticks on it and need to be replaced frequently.

Part Seafood Selections

Two meat items that you must try are the thick cut pork belly and the marinated beef ribs. Both are surprisingly good and the beef short ribs succulent and well marinated. Best if you grilled it on the open fire, on the mash, without the aluminium foil.

For the side dishes, they have choices of crab sticks, fishcakes, balls, mushrooms, corns, onions and crab claws. We BBQ the mushroom on the aluminium foil with lots of margarine on it.

Side Dishes

The cooked food is definitely extensive. It includes braised chicken wings, braised prawns and clams, fried rice, fried chicken wings, spring rolls, beancurd skins, hot dogs in tomato sauce, salad, fried mantou and french loaf.

We top up our buffet with free flow of drinks. It has a very good selection, including coke zero, sarsi, ice cream soda. Although they recommend Thai Milk tea as their signature drink, I don't recommend it. Stick with the bottled drinks.

Overall, if you are someone that enjoys outdoor BBQ, you definitely should give this place a try. Another plus point is that you can stay as long as you want, there is no time limit on the seating even on the weekend. Cheers!!

  1. Have went on 11/11 as it was mine and my good friend wedding anniversary.
    Did a internet booking but was only able to book at latest 1945. Have to call their line for coming to 20 calls when someone finally pick it up, so i can infrom them that i can only reach at 8pm to 8.15pm. That went well and was hoping to give my wife and my couple friend a good and enjoy evening.
    1- place was feaking damn HOT and not enough fans to circulate the air.
    2- At 8pm was told that the wagyu beef have finish and will not be restock for the day.
    3- Sited down at 8pm toke the food , started to cook at 8.15pm , first mouth of food at 8.45pm ( the stove and fire was tooo tooo small).
    4- Staff came over to infrom that the last order at 9.30PM! Can take food and still eat.
    5- Supervisor came over at 9.45PM and told us that they be closing at 10PM !
    6- we had 4 person sharing to a small stove that was only to cook food at a rate of minimum 15-20 than able to eat!
    7- the supervisor was up to the standard that was bombard by me that the eating time stat in the net and on their facebook is 3 hours, closing time is 11pm! the time change was not told and infrom to the customer when paying nor booking!
    8- only 1 to give a star to their place,food. the second star is given to their supervison that he keep his clam and talk to us was a smile.

    Overall 101% will not recommends to any people to go eat!

  3. Not recommended entire place is filled with smoke. Definitely a big no no. Hot and humid.
    Tho seafood is fresh, but queue is long, staff has attitude problem when you make your choice.
    Long queue at the entrance looks scary. Our first time there, te staff generally not very helpful, grouchy. Wont think about returning despite the food is nice.
