in bangkok, thailand (june’24)
wow, finally made it to a shop i’ve been trying since 2021 as our last meal this trip. have been constantly dm-ing them to ask for seats and so lucky this trip i have found someone kind enough to take me with them.
run by chef yu and tommy, they are known to some as the top thai home kitchen and definitely one of if not the hardest table to score in bangkok. there are only 2 large tables so i was so privileged to finally dine here.
my favourite dishes tonight were the cabbage stem fried in salted fish which was so flavourful and the fried crab in chilli and beans. their signature spaghetti dish was very moreish, it had a creamy sauce made of prawn oil and fat and topped with ample large prawns. also really enjoyed the classic thai dishes like pork neck, fish sauce chicken wings and my favourite dish of the fried eagle fish in a slightly sweet sauce. their fried prawn with garlic was also incredibly massive in size drenched in more prawn oil, and their garlic pork liver texture was also cooked well. ended the meal with a banana samosa, untraditional but very satisfying ending. so glad to have finally tried this place, would like the come back for more dishes next time i’m in bangkok.
