Chef Man

With a vibrant atmosphere from the large open kitchen, Chef Man is one of the most popular Chinese restaurants in town thanks to its fresh dim sum like kanom jeep gung (shrimp dumplings, B170), which boasts a chewy yet thin flour wrapping. Other highlights include the Cantonese classic: Peking duck (B1,500, must order in advance). The duck comes out steaming and aromatic, with ripe mangoes, peanut sauce and shredded garlic to liven things up. Finish on a sweet note with the popular steamed lava bun (B110), filled with a comforting salted egg custard.

Mrs.Wu

From the neon-lit Mrs.Wu sign out front, it is clear that this vintage-yet-modern hotpot restaurant does things differently. Your broth comes separated into three flavors: a hearty pork bone stock bursting with peppercorn; a rich Japanese nabe with red wine; and a herbaceous and spicy Turmeric Chicken Soup. Add some thinly sliced pork (B280 for the mixed pork set) and beef (B550 for the mixed beef set) to the steaming pot and you’re in business. We recommend the add-ons like the juicy, tender cheese lava meatballs (B50) and fresh cuttlefish (B80).
