Before you head over
Essential advice on menu pacing, seasonal reservations, and dietary considerations for your visit.
Navigating Spice Levels and Shellfish Allergens
Dishes are authentically spiced with curry and chillies that can pack intense heat, while many preparations rely on shrimp paste or oyster sauce. Notify the team early if you have shellfish allergies or prefer a milder heat profile.
Pre-Booking the Seasonal Khao Chae Lunch
The seasonal royal summer Khao Chae set is highly sought after between March and May and strictly served from 11:30 AM to 2:00 PM. Book your set and table in advance to avoid missing out on this limited lunchtime specialty.
