Ecstatic to be back at @sornfinesouthern - probably the most difficult restaurant to book in Bangkok! Serving fiery innovative southern Thai cuisine by @ice_supaksorn, it’s one of my favorite restaurants in Bangkok. While southern Thai food is known to be spicy, not every dish was spicy here and we experienced a wide range of flavors from dish to dish. Our meal started with a series of small bites from the sea - the highlights of which were the Phuket lobster and the signature Gems on Crab Stick with live blue crab, mud crab roe, and yellow chili paste. The spiciness in our mouths was then magically washed away by the soothing Coconut soup with dried squid and shrimp. Then came another signature - the beautiful Khao Yum with 10 different southern vegetables and herbs mixed with a fermented budu sauce. The tasty southern Beef Curry with roti concluded the first part of our meal before the main course which was to be shared family style.
