Chinatown has some of the best street food in the city, and this is one of its most famous stands. Hoi thod translates as fried oyster, and that is exactly what Mr Mong has been serving for over 30 years. Order the omelette with crispy or soft fried oysters or have it with mussels instead. His recipe has never changed throughout the decades, though he has passed the cooking to an apprentice who maintains his standards. This specialty of the house is made with fresh oysters fried ‘til crisp with egg and a sticky sauce. But in case you don’t want oysters, opt for the mussels instead.

Supanniga Eating Room

Downstairs at Supanniga Eating Room, glass walls overlook the river—it feels sort of like a houseboat, if said houseboat also had an industrial, Brooklyn-esque design. There’s assorted seating—couches, iron and wooden chairs—a long bar, and stairs leading up to an open-air roof, which is the prime location for dining.

Sühring

A restored garden home is a lovely backdrop for Sühring’s modern takes on German classics. The menu changes daily here; one day you’ll see spätzle, the next, brotzeit. The restaurant has a reputation for its wine list, which, unsurprisingly, skews German; you might find your new favorite Riesling. The service is as refined as the setting, and the crowd is dapper through and through.

Teens of Thailand

Get past the seedy-sounding name and push open two heavy wooden doors, and you’ll have found yourself in Bangkok’s best gin bar—and the city’s worst-kept secret. Teens, as it’s known locally, has been credited with making Soi Nana, a small shophouse-lined lane on the fringes of Chinatown, the hottest address in the city. The dimly lit space is tiny: there are only 15 seats and two bartenders who work elbow-to-elbow behind a small wooden bar with a huge stash of gin. As for the decor, there are retro Thai movie posters, a vintage piano, a teetering (which leads to an office) and a crumbling wall.
