Now in its sixth year, Top Tables has grown into Bangkok’s most trusted guide for discerning foodies. Top Tables is compiled by a panel of foodies, bloggers, journalists and F&B professionals. Voted by 24 judges, 109 restaurants have made it into the 2015 guide.

L'atelier de Joel Robuchon is number 1 in the Top 30, showing how excited Bangkok is about welcoming the man with the most Michelin stars in the world. In second position comes Gaggan, now globally recognized as one of the world’s most important chefs. In third position comes Le Du, which is just barely a year old and helmed by a 29-year-old Thai chef—a strong confirmation that our city’s foodies value local talent and have embraced creative Thai cuisine.

And on the other, we’ve never had so many great new restaurants doing Thai food as creative fine dining.”
