Som Tam Jay So

"A Choice Spot for Som Tam and Spicy Chicken Wings One of Thailand’s most loved dishes, som tam (green papaya salad) is ubiquitous in Bangkok, with vendors across the capital pounding together the essential components of shredded fruit, garlic, fish sauce, palm sugar, and lots and lots of chili. One of the best places to sample a truly delicious version is this friendly venue tucked away in the backstreets of Silom. Besides serving their versions of som tam , agargantuan barbecue produces beautifully smoky grilled chicken wings. While these are the stars of the show, the restaurant also does a winning line in other classics from northeast Thailand such as kor moo yang (grilled pork neck)."

"Som Tam Jay So is located down a quiet side street in Bangkok's Silom business district. Locals flock here for som tam, a well-known Isaan dish that's an addictive combination of sugar, fruit, garlic, fish sauce, and an overabundance of chilis. To balance out the spice, order some tender marinated chicken, grilled onsite, or go for a variation on the classic papaya salad. The menu is written in Thai, so take a shot in the dark, or tell the staff what you want." - Katie Lockhart
