In the modern-day melee of top-notch restaurants here, nahm may no longer be on top of the competition, but it's still one of Bangkok's nicest Thai restaurants. Helmed by the talented female chef Pim, counted among the city's leading chefs, it consistently serves up creative and classy dishes, such as black grouper in tamarind and ginger broth, or the stir-fried 'angry beef'.
If you’re expecting bland, gentrified Thai food meant for foreigners, prepare to be surprised — dishes here are as spicy and pungent as they need to be. Reservations essential.
