Chachawan

Specialising in the spicy cuisine of northeastern Thailand's Isaan region, this hip little spot is always jam-packed and plenty noisy. No curries or pad thai here, just bright, herb-infused, chilli-packed salads and grilled fish and meat (vegetarian options too). Wash it all down with cocktails incorporating Thai flavours such as sweet tea and lychee. No reservations – expect a wait in the evening.
