Great Restaurants in Bangrak and Silom

Le Du restaurant on Silom is one of our favourite restaurants in Bangkok, if not our favourite. We were lucky to discover it from the very early days and enjoyed the evolution from a young and shy hidden restaurant to a world-class, Michelin-starred venue. Read More
