The dining period is underway. Here are the most popular BKRW venues where you can still book a table. 

The dining period for BK Restaurant Week 2023 is live now until November 15. You can still grab a seat at over 50 of the city’s best restaurants and try the exclusive menus made just for this event—but some of the venues are filling up fast.  

Curious about what other diners are booking? Here are the top 10 selling restaurants during this year’s event (that you can still get a table at).  Check out the menus and details below. 

UOB and TMRW card holders also get a complimentary item with every booking, and some of the venues are dishing out free premium water from Perrier and Vittel.

Guilty

In addition to being one of the city’s few Peruvian restaurants, Guilty puts an even more unique twist on things by serving Peruvian Nikkei (Peruvian ingredients molded by Japanese techniques) fare. Begin with the sea bass ceviche “robalo” whose sweet potato purée and tiger milk are balanced out by a punchy chili oil. Next, cut into the Brazilian-style grilled Wagyu steak, before ending your South American culinary journey with a classic tres leches cake.

Oji Omakase 

The fact that OJI Omakase regularly tops people’s lists of favorite omakase restaurants is a testament to the venue’s commitment to “cospa” (i.e. cost performance). After all, where else will you find an affordable 12-course omakase meal made with the freshest, high-quality ingredients? On the sushi side of things, you have ika, kuruma ebi, and anago, and that’s not mentioning the non-sushi items such as the bara mini don and the fluffy castella.

Juksunchae 

The pre-opening buzz around Juksunchae was real this year, partly thanks to their position as one of the city’s very first (and still only a few) Korean fine dining restaurants. Start off your meal with a tangy soy sauce-cured grouper, followed by short ribs that have been smoked for 12 hours and glazed in a gojuchang sauce, and round it all out with a homemade anpang served with toasted rice ice cream and green tea drizzle.

The Standard Grill

At The Standard Grill, classic American fare (they’re a sibling of the iconic New York namesake) meets fine dining flair. We recommend starting off with the wedge salad in its creamy blue cheese dressing. Next, you have three equally enticing entrées: crispy grilled sea bass, juicy lamb cutlets in tapenade jus, or a decadent wild boar ragout. Round off your meal with the black forest millefeuille.

Cafe Wolseley Bangkok

A branch of London’s iconic The Wolseley, the Bangkok venue holds its own alongside its namesake. Expect traditional European fare, with diners able to pick from one of two choices for each course. Try a classic French Onion soup before diving into signature Wolseley’s 5-day marinated coq au vin. For dessert, choose between a decadent crème brûlée or a rich chocolate and orange truffle torte.

Char Restaurant

Dwelling 25 stories above Wireless Road, Char’s food is as stellar as the views. Diners can choose to start the meal with Japanese scallops and braised beef short ribs, or the CHAR signature Caesar salad with sous vide pork belly. Both mains are actually a sort of surf-and-turf—the sous vide chicken breast is served with shrimp and a creamy lobster sauce, while the wagyu beef tenderloin also has tempura shrimp as well as a sweet potato fondant. Dessert is a fun banana cream pie in a jar.

The Story House at The Siam

This is one of Bangkok’s most fun eateries, with each of the different rooms inside reflecting a different “personality.” Pair the homemade bread (served with seaweed butter) with the pork and duck rillettes, which come alongside a green onion waffle. Depending on whether you’re feeling more “surf” or “turf” for the main, opt between the black grouper main with smoked eggplant and red pepper jam, or the confit chicken leg. End your meal with a light lavender meringue. This is also one of the few restaurants to have non-meat options for vegetarians.

Salvia

Meaning “sage” in Italian, Salvia is a homey traditional osteria with equally hearty Italian dishes on the menu. The polpettes are stuffed with a mix of ricotta and pecorino, followed by handmade ricotta-pumpkin tortellinis. For the main, there’s cod filet in a juicy tomato-garlic stew, or homemade artisanal Italian sausages with a side of mashed potato in pork jus. Round out your evening in Italy with a duo of classic olive oil cake and pine nut ice-cream.

Akira Back

The menu here is a master class in fusion cuisine, specifically Chef Akira Back’s signature blend of Korean-Japanese comfort food with international twists. The four-course menu begins with a Hokkaido scallop tiradito, followed by black cod and gochujang miso in a crispy lettuce wrap, then Wagyu beef cheeks with truffle braising jus. The Korean rice pudding dessert is served with a sweet and tangy makgeolli ice-cream.

Yamazato

At Yamazato (a counterpart of the Michelin-starred Amsterdam-based Yamazato), diners will be presented with their own shokado bento featuring an assortment of the restaurant’s “haute Japanese” fare. All you have to do is pick your oshokuji (simmered vegetables, shirasu fish, or pickle and miso) and dessert (we recommend the matcha pudding) to accompany your bento, which includes otsukuri with three types of miso, and a sizzling salmon teriyaki.
