                                                        Their website says they have a testing menu for 45£, but apparently they don't anymore, and it's actually 75£, but they didn't even offer me that or tell me what that includes. Went in thinking I would get to sample an array of the menu 45£. Take that off the website or update it if it isn't offered. Probably would've considered doing the 75£ option cause the meal ended up not being far off with drinks. Service could've been better in accommodating that. Good food, but thought this would be better. Got one "spring roll" and one grilled squid as an app, and both were pretty okay. Then got beef green curry, which was pretty mild and not as flavorful as I thought, but the meal saver was the crispy spicy pork. That was an all-time great dish, would've been disappointed with the meal if it wasn't for that.

We shared the deep-fried seabream, grilled chicken, pork with betel leaves, massaman duck curry, papaya salad, and jasmine rice. Also, the mango sticky rice dessert. Loved all the dishes—our tummies were filled with delicious Thai food. We would highly recommend it. 👌🏾

                                                        Genuinely like some of the modern eateries in Bangkok. Really lovely food. The grilled squid in particular was off the planet delicious.

                                                        What a disappointing meal after all the hype and since I still remember Nahm and am a huge fan of Som Saa and Kolae where chefs trained under David Thomson. Flavours, colours, textures all below par. The Chinese greens were brown mush with hardly any greens, the crispy pork was soggy not crispy, clearly warmed in the microwave! Jasmine rice was mushy not sticky. Turmeric curry sickly sweet. Only thing really authentic was the mango sticky rice. Service attentive but staff not interested in feedback, ambience very nice.
