"Chef “Tam” Chudaree Debkhakam has steered this restaurant, which operates out of her aristocratic grandmother’s home, to two Michelin stars in a breathtakingly short amount of time. Her food, refined yet personal, revolves around traditional recipes made with sustainably farmed local produce. Guests are led on a garden tour before settling down to a seven-course meal that changes seasonally. Most tables are in view of the large open kitchen, where you can watch Tam herself craft dishes that manage to walk a tightrope of interesting flavors — showcasing how fun Central Thai food can really be." - Chawadee Nualkhair

"Chef Chudaree 'Tam' Debhakam brings the farm-to-table concept to life with her detailed, contemporary Thai tasting menu.

The dishes present bold flavours and delicate spices, crafted by a charming team within an elegant villa setting." - Michelin Inspector
