Fantastic experience at Nawa, Bangkok.
Was hoping to get into Sorn but was unfortunately unable to get a reservation. Thanks to the lovely people in this Sub, we were recommended both Ore and Nawa – and visited both on our trip.
We booked the 8:30pm spot so we wouldn’t be rushed and it was a great experience from start to finish – there weren’t actually that many people in the restaurant for a Thursday night so service was extremely attentive.
We started out with a welcome snack of fermented pineapple which was a great way to start the meal, followed by some seasonal snacks. The crab was definitely a standout.
My favourite dish was the oyster omelette, it was creamy, rich in flavour, but not overpowering.
I liked the fact we were able to see the river prawn grilled in front of us at the table and served fresh – this was another highlight for me.
The signature tom yum has been mentioned as being super spicy in this group and it definitely packed a punch. It was a bit too hot for my partner and definitely made my eyes water but I really enjoyed them not toning down the spice for foreign diners. I would definitely recommend adding this to your meal if you can handle heat.
The free range chicken was also brought over to the table and they explained the process of cooking, before being served with rice.
All in all a great experience and I would definitely return if I’m in Bangkok again.
