Video: Innovating Tradition
"Three verdant lotus ponds, rich teak wood panelling and intricate Thai embellishments paint a picture of traditional luxury at the one-Michelin-starred Sra Bua by Kiin Kiin in Bangkok. But these simply set the stage for the modern Thai gastronomy created by renowned Danish chef Henrik Yde Anderson and presented by head chef, Chayawee “Berm” Sutcharichan. The restaurant is the Bangkok outpost of Yde Anderson’s Kiin Kiin restaurant in Copenhagen, which also holds a Michelin star for its modern molecular take on Thai cuisine. At both restaurants, traditional Thai cooking is turned on its head — the flavours and ingredients are clearly recognisable, but the presentation and techniques used are distinctly avant garde." - Rachel Tan
