How Chefs Catch Thailand’s River Prawns for an Ancient Thai Food Recipe | Eater
"Led by chef Prin Polsuk, the establishment is devoted to uncovering and reinventing ancient Thai recipes. Polsuk collects old recipe books and reconstructs dishes from historical texts—most notably reviving a traditional kanom jeen nam ya that reflects riverine ways of life and the region’s reliance on fish, prawns and shellfish. His approach emphasizes historical accuracy, hands‑on techniques like open‑flame cooking and hand‑pounded curry pastes, and a belief that cooking and shared meals are a cultural expression of love and community." - Terri Ciccone
