Finger Dining & Royal Thai Cuisine in Bangkok - Ruen Mallika

  • Опубліковано 21 сер 2024
  • In this video I visit a friend's restaurant, and a very unique dining experience in Bangkok! Ruen Mallika, located in Sukhumvit Soi 22, is a Thai restaurant that serves "royal Thai cuisine" with elaborately decorated food fit for royals! What's more is you can even rent a Thai outfit and order from the "finger dining menu" to get the full experience. The building is actually an old traditional Thai wooden house that is over 200 years old!
    This isn't some gimmicky, touristy stuff though. The food is legitimately delicious and well executed. This restaurant is recommended by the Michelin Guide, and its sister restaurant (the regular, non-royal version of this place) has been my family's regular place for years. The price is reasonable, it's not cheap but definitely not super expensive, about standard for this "class" of restaurant in Bangkok. The portion sizes are generous (which is not the case for many BBK restaurants) so I think it's a good deal.
    Ruen Mallika Restaurant เรือนมัลลิการ์
    189 Soi Sukhumvit 22, Sukhumvit Rd.
    Klongtoey, Bangkok 10110

    Note: The cost to rent the Thai outfits is 500baht each at the time of this filming.

    Bua Loy Sam Kasat is very similar to a Filipino dish called ginataang bilo-bilo (glutinous rice balls in coconut milk). Typical ingredients we add are banana, jack fruit, tapioca balls, and sweet potato.

    I grew up in Thailand as 13 years old, I learned to eat with my hands with grandparents. In the countryside to eat with hands is normal, it is not ancient....Your guys are probably from big cities,... Thanks for recommendation. I likes that all people get dress as Thai tradition clothes....I wish we all could start to wear those clothes again...

In my opinion Malay cuisine, Thai cuisine, Indonesian cuisine and Philippines traditional cuisine is unique, and I think our countries cuisine is the one using many ingredients with those spices,herbs and aromatics. Your video is telling the world to try authentic southeast Asia's cuisine. I'm glad we share the similar culture and foods.
