Thanaruek Laoraowirodge (of Somtum Der fame) brings a little Northeast Thai flavor back to Bangkok with his latest outpost Supanniga Eating Room. Inspired by his khunyai’s home cooked meals, Supanniga honors tradition in a contemporary setting - a cozy mix of earth tones, reclaimed wood and vibrant splashes of yellow. Featuring recipes passed on from 80 years ago, dishes eschew style for classic tastes. It’s an extensive menu - standouts include: moo cha muang (pork with Guttiferae tree leaves), nam prik khai pu (crab meat with chili paste) and yam pla salid tod krob (deep fried leaf fish spicy salad). Young and modern, Supanniga still respects the classics and this is a popular local spot that is an absolute must.
