(THE LOST REciPES AT cOUnTRY KiTcHEn 乡味小厨)
Taste your way through delicious small plates of traditional Chinese rural snacks plus ‘lost recipes’ of classic Beijing food at this stylish, rustic Chinese restaurant. Beijing- born chef Chai Xin has recreated forgotten imperial recipes and traditional techniques. A wood-fired oven produces classic Peking duck and crispy, tender pork belly. Noodles are a must, handmade in front of
you in the central open kitchen. Try popular black-chicken soup and the fried prawns in tomato sauce.

(KRUA APSORn (ครัวอัปษร)
For delicious, classic Thai food at
a reasonable price, Krua Apsorn in Samsen Road is a convenient place for an authentic Thai meal in the Dusit district of Old Bangkok. The crab omelet is an all-time favorite, as are stir-fried crab with string beans and yellow chilies; river prawns with garlic; and bowls of sour lotus-stem and prawn soup. Order the signature coconut sorbet for dessert. This
is the original Krua Apsorn, with others now in Dinso Road and several Bangkok Malls.
