Bangkok has always been a foodie paradise, with knockout meals on just about every block. While the street food here is still second to none, the city has also reinvented itself in recent years with an outstanding array of fine dining options and great gourmet selections from around the world. Gaggan has been voted the Best Restaurant in Asia for four years running now, serving up unique molecular influenced Indian cuisine, and now has two Michelin stars to its name, while just next door, Indian Chef Garima Arora will dazzle your palate with exquisite takes on Asian fare using the freshest locally sourced ingredients at the award-winning Gaa. Mezzaluna, set 65 floors up at the Lebua, not only has Bangkok’s best view, but it also has 2 Michelin stars and the award-winning cuisine of Japanese chef Ryuki Kawasaki. Other truly excellent Thai-influenced spots include the unique creations at Canvas and the outstanding Thai tasting menu at Saawaan. For authentic hard to find Thai dishes at very fair prices, both Supanniga and The Local are the best places in town, and if you want Isaan northeastern spice, head to always crowded Baan Som Tam.
It’s not only Thai food that visitors are coming to Bangkok for now though. In addition to Gaggan, Japanese features highly on the Bangkok menu. For creative sushi, Isao will knock your socks off and is probably the only restaurant in Bangkok that has a line out the door 365 days a year. There are thousands of Italian places to choose from, but for a real trattoria, head to Appia. For French, Le Normandie not only serves the best haute cuisine French for miles, but it also has two Michelin stars. You most definitely won’t be going hungry in this city.
