Another visit last month to the incredible ⭐️ Sorn in Bangkok. This is an absolute must visit when in Bangkok serving refined Southern Thai cuisine in a tasting menu format. Though not for the faint of heart as this is some of the spiciest Thai food you can get. However, they are happy to dial down the heat if you let them know. Also the menu is very well balanced with any of the particularly fiery dishes usually followed by a dish that is designed to cool you down and bring some welcome relief. I did try to make a good showing of myself during my first foody date with Samantha ,aka Bangkokfoodies.com, but inevitably ended up sobbing like a small child during a couple of the courses ? ?. I don’t think she noticed ??♂️?
Thanks again to Yodkwan U-pumpruk for the incredible food and hospitality and also to my pal Ice. See you both in October I hope ?? Less

Thanks again Thomas Sühring , Mathias Sühring and team for another stellar meal. It honestly keeps getting better and better every time I visit, which is hard to believe when after every visit I think I’ve just had a perfect meal. See you again in October I hope ?? Less

Lunch last week at Baan Nual in Soi Sam Sen 2, Bangkok. Owner Sittisak Sakornsin takes care of the diners lucky enough to secure a reservation at one of his two tables in this small homely restaurant while his Sister Yuwarat cooks family style Thai dishes of the highest quality using ingredients procured from Trok Mor market each morning. It feels less like a restaurant and more like you are eating at your Grandmother’s house. This relatively new Bangkok eatery is fully booked up to 2 months in advance and it is easy to see why. The only way to enjoy this style of cooking is with a group of friends so get on IG or Line and book your table today, you won’t regret it. Less

After Barcelona the next stop on this three week three city tour was Madrid and the first meal was very special indeed, a private dinner at a restaurant that was an absolute highlight of 2020 for me so I was incredibly happy to go back.
Chef Jorge Muñoz very kindly offered to cook for twelve of us privately.
The meal was stunning. Purely ingredient focused and packing every possible ounce of flavour into each dish. Mind blowing really when you consider that Jorge works that kitchen on his own.
The croquetta is the best I’ve ever tasted and the river lamprey, a fish that I’ve never tried before, was a revelation.
Together with Diver XO this is now firmly at the top of my list of restaurants to book when planning a trip to Madrid.
@jorgemunozchef has since moved on but I am very excited for his next project.

- Neil A. Chef added a new meal Dinner at Ernst at ernst
I almost forgot the amazing wine pairing @ernst.berlin by the hugely knowledgable sommelier @christophgeyler
The restaurant only works with small wineries and dedicated winemakers whose agricultural philosophies echo that of the farmers that they use. 🍷 .

Dinner a couple of weeks ago at Front Room in the Waldorf Astoria Bangkok. Here, chef Rungthiwa Chummongkhon (Fae to her friends) and her team take inspiration from her 12 years cooking in Denmark (Geranium, Noma) and also from local Thai ingredients to produce a cooking style that marries the West and the Far East using Nordic cooking techniques such as curing, fermenting and smoking.
I visited Front Room late last year when it had only very recently opened and I had a very enjoyable meal. There were a couple of issues that I think were forgivable for a restaurant and a chef with this ambition at such an early stage, but overall I thought it was great and I was eager to return in a few months to see how it had developed.
Apart from the bread and a few of the petit fours, this was an entirely new menu. I have to say that I was hoping for a leap forward from my last visit having had the time for the kitchen to settle down and find it’s identity. Don’t get me wrong, it was still a nice meal but I definitely preferred the previous menu to this one.
I think that maybe this type of restaurant and ambition from Chef Fae may not be suited to an enormous dining room tethered to a 5* hotel. I doubt they are attracting the sort of diners that they would do in a stand alone restaurant space with fewer covers and I think that that would make a real difference. I imagine that being attached to such a large hotel brings with it a whole different set of challenges other than focusing on the food.
Anyway, I still say give it a try if you are in Bangkok and if you do I would be interested to hear your opinion as this is just mine.

Dinner a couple of weeks ago at the newish Da Terra in London’s Bethnal Green. Partnered with Argentine chef Paul Airaudo, head chef Rafael Cagali, formerly of Simon Rogan’s Aulis and the Fat Duck, cooks “Latin American cuisine with Italian inspiration” in the East London site that used to house Nuno Mendes’s Viajante and Lee Westcott’s Typing Room.
It was a nice enough meal but nothing that really shone for me. Lovely friendly service and a great table right in front of the open kitchen. It wouldn’t surprise me if this place garners a Michelin star when the guide comes out again but at the same time it wouldn’t surprise me if it didn’t . It’s somewhere that I would be interested in revisiting in a years time to see how it has developed.
When in San Sebastián last week I also visited Paulo Airado’s michelin starred restaurant Amelia, which was a meal that I would go back for much sooner.

- Neil A. Chef added a new meal Dinner at Willem Hiele at Willem Hiele
And the final dish of this incredible meal @willemhiele restaurant was a tart with sea buckthorn & hazelnut ice cream. Swipe to see the video of Willem explaining the dish. Once again, I can not recommend this restaurant highly enough. Scroll down my FB a couple of posts to find the review and more details.
