Nahm Restaurant

hf_thompsonThe painstakingly perfected dishes created by renowned chef David Thompson at Nahmhf_squid Restaurant sacrifice no authenticity. Thompson is a cookery author, restaurateur, and, despite his Australian heritage, is a master of Thai food preparation. He shares ancient cooking traditions that he has pulled from centuries-old Thai cookbooks.

Ranked among the finest restaurants in the world and voted number one of Asia’s 50 Best Restaurants in 2014, Nahm can be found tucked away alongside the sparkling pool at the Metropolitan by COMO Hotels in Bangkok.

With interior aspects reminiscent of temples from the ancient city of Ayutthaya, the ambiance is intimate and inviting without any shortfalls in comfort. Muse over Thompson’s expertly combined ingredients that allow the sweet, sour, salty and spicy characteristics that make Thai food so enticing. From squid stir-fried with cured pork and eggs, to smoked fish and shredded prawn soup with sour leaves, palates are not left wanting.
