Following in the footsteps of its Hua Hin sibling, Thonglor’s Seenspace has welcomed fancy Isaan joint, Der.

Like its predecessor, Bangkok Der (not to be confused with neighboring Somtum Der) adopts stark monochrome, concrete, and black furnishings for a feel that’s entirely different from your usual homely, rattan-dominated northern diner.

Fiery and tangy dishes are firmly the order of the day—try the tam lao kung mak yad sai (grilled shrimp and stuffed squid dressed in somtam sauce, B185) and suup nhor mhai (spicy bamboo shoot salad, B80) paired with a frosty beer woon.
