It depends what you mean by a "nice family meal" - is this family Thai, Western or what? Why anyone bothers with G's beats me. The owner is overly familiar with his regular diners; many of my friends simply refuse to go there any more. There's always Fork & Cork (formerly Sphinx) at the end of the same Soi. It might be worth investigating what's down the other end of Convent Rd opposite BNH; I had lunch at Coffee Club the other day but thought it way too expensive. There are some other restaurants close by that looked interesting; I've eaten at one or two I could recommend but don't recall their names. There's also the large Dean & Deluca next to Chong Nonsi BTS - don't bother with their squalid little shop on Silom. I can recommend the Chong Nonsi one
