"Tucked away in a restored villa down an unassuming alley off Bangkok's Sukhumvit Road, I experienced Sorn as a three-MICHELIN-Star sanctuary of Southern Thai flavor crafted by chef-owner Supaksorn “Ice” Jongsiri and his team. The restaurant—named for the Sanskrit concept of sarana, a refuge—revives long-lost Southern Thai recipes inspired by the forests of Southern Thailand, emphasizing sustainably sourced ingredients, slow cooking and traditional craftsmanship. I joined a MICHELIN Guide Inspector on a journey through its sought-after dining experience, where each plate captures the soul of Southern Thai cuisine with a depth and passion that helped make Sorn the world's first Thai restaurant to earn Three MICHELIN Stars, a destination truly worth a special journey." - The MICHELIN Guide
