Why should you go there and how do you do it right?

Come for the food and forgive everything else. This small, family-run restaurant on Prachathipatai Road, in the old Phra Nakhon district, is an absolute highlight: Som Tum, Larb Moo, Gai Yang, Moo Yang, and spicy salads with a real kick. Several guests report getting three dishes for only about 200 baht – almost unimaginable in central Bangkok.

The downside is that the restaurant is a bit run-down and service can become bogged down when it's busy. Reviews mention forgotten drinks, long waits, and at least one order marked "not spicy" but served spicy nonetheless. No one is unfriendly; it's simply a small team overwhelmed by the situation. If this would ruin your evening, you should eat somewhere else. However, if you'd rather enjoy excellent grilled meat than perfectly presented plates, you'll be very satisfied here.
