Unique, daring and challenging, Waldorf Astoria's The Front Room defies labels. Chiang Rai-born head chef Fae Chummongkhon graduated culinary school in Denmark before working the top New Nordic kitchens (Noma included).

Fae's tasting menus usually go for B3,300 for 10 courses or B2,700 for seven courses, but as part of BK's Top Tables Champions series, you can try her earthy, experimental dishes highlighting some surprising ties between Thai and Nordic cuisine as part of a tasting menu priced at just B1,500++/person.
