Sorn is known around Bangkok, especially as it now has 2 Michelin stars. I had been wanting to eat here for a while and it certainly lived up to its billing.
The car park is very small, only enough for about 3-4 cars so be aware of that. If you are not one of the first to arrive you will have to turn around in the road and drive back to park at a nearby hotel. They'll then pick you up and take you to the restaurant in a golf cart. A bit of a strange start to the meal, but luckily it was all fantastic from then on.
Sorn serves a set menu of around 15 courses. The first half of the meal are several very small plates of bite-size food. A good variety of different dishes from around the South of Thailand including crab curry with roti, roasted pork with ginger and raw Phuket lobster. All of them were absolutely delicious, this was my favourite part of the meal as there was so much variety and every dish had a completely different texture and flavour.
After that came mixed vegetables and the first main course: Mullet yellow curry and Mantis Shrimp served with rice that had been cooked in a traditional clay plot (very rare these days) and various sides. The second main course was beef served with a southern curry sauce and turmeric rice. This was the best dish of the night, I had no idea Thai beef could be this amazing, it was on par with what I have had in Japan and the UK.
The sweet course was also exceptionally good. I am not a fan of Thai desserts at all, but the tapioca, coconut ice cream and deep-fried banana were just incredible and so tasty. The "canned fruit" and Southern coffee was a nice touch to end the meal.
Every dish is explained to you as it comes out, its history, where it comes from and how it is made etc, either by the knowledgeable head chef or the excellent front of house manager who made sure we were looked after for the whole evening. They can all speak good English as well as Thai. We were lucky to get a table near the outdoor kitchen, so we could see everything being prepared too.
The food isn't actually as hot as everyone says. Yes it is spicy, but no more so than your typical restaurant in Bangkok that serves Thai food. The difference is that here all the dishes are cooked together so you can't just ask for a mild version.
This was probably the best meal I have had in Bangkok, I would highly recommend this restaurant. The food, ambience and service were all amazing, especially Chef Yod, but all of the staff were exceptional.
The only disappointing thing was being charged 375 Baht for a bottle of water. I've no problem paying good money for food and wine, but this was just ridiculous. I know it's a favourite trick of mid-range places here to try and squeeze every last Baht from their customers, but is there really any need for a 2* Michelin restaurant to do this?
It's worth mentioning that it is not easy to get a table at this restaurant as they only accept reservations by phone one day a month, which of course means it's virtually impossible to actually get through to anyone. However what a lot of people don't realise is that they reserve a single table (up to 4 pax) each night for foreigners who cannot call/speak Thai. Their email is info@sornfinesouthern.com and they will send you a link for booking. Why they don't simply extend this system to all customers I do not know?
