By serendipity we found ourselves at another one of Chef Ton's ( of @ledubkk ) and brother Tam's joint, OK maybe more than coincidental considering it was the one of the small but notable collection of restaurants who swiftly opened their doors post restaurant-lockdown and thankfully they did! Couples could eat together in perfect harmony and families shared each other's company and plates in peace and safety.
Speaking of family, the restaurant's menu is all about family, it's even in the name! The dishes are inspired by the boy's grandparents and mother's recipes and if you poke your head upstairs, you'll find Thai " Pas' " (Aunties) tearing off fresh herbs and flipping piping hot woks. Legit and wholesome but not without a touch of glamour.
We loved the Lamb shank Massamam, the lamb was not melt-in-mouth, more like beefy-in-bite, meaning it had great chew and texture and without being "sous vide" into oblivion, but that secret Massamam sauce was the magic trick.
When we go, I am simply compelled to order the Thai fish cake . Something akin to my childhood memories, of Grandma making piles of them to snack on at any time of the day. Bouncy, sharp, herbaceous. @baanbkk version is a slightly fancier version which is garnished with fried kaffir lime leaves.
Another recommendation to make is the prawn dish, pretty much any prawn dish. Selecting and cooking prawns is just one of those things Chef Tons and his team does best. If it's a matter of indulging in a sophisticated yet casual Thai meal, then Baan Thai Family Recipe is pretty much the no brainier.
