The 20 Best Things to Do in Bangkok

"Arguably Bangkok’s hottest tasting table, this Chinatown fine-dining restaurant blends Chinese and Thai to create the city’s most innovative Michelin-star meal. Diners eat inside a stunning Sino-Portuguese where Chef Pichaya “Pam” Soontornyanakij’s family lived and made traditional Chinese medicines for over 100 years. The five-story building retains its charm and character (particularly the handpainted tigers) but has gotten a sleek and sexy makeover since Chef Pam took over. Potong combines storytelling from Chef Pam’s childhood and travels with plate after plate of what she describes as, “progressive Thai-Chinese cuisine.” Tasting menu dishes here change, but a few examples are “heart and soul,” made of yin-yang egg noodles, pepper pork broth, and caviar and “bold,” highlighting 14-day aged duck." - Diana Hubbell, Katie Lockhart
