"This old-timey relic next to the Democracy Monument once held a Michelin star, but that’s not what this restaurant is really about. With its cruise ship-inspired interiors, servers dressed like sailors, and singers warbling 1950s and ’60s Thai standards, Methavalai Sorndaeng is a snapshot of a bygone age. This extends to the menu, which continues to offer what was once the height of midcentury glamor: old-fashioned dishes like kratong tong (minced prawn in a pastry shell), khao tung na tung (rice crackers with a creamy pork-prawn dip), and mee krob (crispy sweet noodles)." - Chawadee Nualkhair, Austin Bush, Sirin Wongpanit
