The BAD 2023 Best Wine Bar winner, Mod Kaew Wine Bar, closed at the end of April, but now they’re back at a new location on Sathorn Soi 12 and they’re bringing in a new brunch every weekend.

 

Mod Kaew changed Bangkok’s wine game with their easygoing and unpretentious vibe, and now at their new location across from the recently opened Asai Sathorn hotel, they’ll be putting on a brunch from noon to 4pm, featuring, as ever, local dining talent. 

 

Mod Kaew tells BK their brunch this weekend will be more of a grocery style to showcase good products with simple cooking methods and bistro style. This weekend will see turbot and rib-eye, but each event will be based on what the local providers have fresh and seasonal. Regular offerings will include fresh seafood, cold cuts, and a selection of cheeses. 

 

As with the previous location in Ploenchit, on the night menu they’ll be doing traditional bistro sharing plates of different sizes but with Latin American and Asian influence with their new Costa Rican chef Charlie Fung.

 

In December last year, the team behind Mod Kaew (meaning "bottoms up"), opened a bottle shop in Phrom Phong right next to Peppina on Sukhumvit Soi 33, Mod Kwad (meaning "bottoms up" but from the bottle).
