One of Bangkok’s Thai fine-dining icons goes back to its roots
Chef Pim’s nahm revives rare recipes with bold flavors and a sustainable edge.
Among Bangkok’s most respected Thai fine-dining spots, nahm has always stood apart. The fine-dining fixture at COMO Metropolitan Bangkok, with a Michelin-starred legacy that spans nearly a decade, is doubling down on what it’s always done best: real Thai food, rooted in tradition, made with ingredients that actually matter.
Bangkok-born Chef Pim Techamuanvivit isn’t here to remix the classics. Instead, she digs deep, reimagining royal and regional recipes using herbs from the restaurant’s own garden, rare produce from small-scale farmers, and seafood sourced straight from trusted Thai producers. Her heritage tasting menu (B3,900) hits hard with unripe banana curries, smoked amberjack soup, and wild ferns stir-fried in fire. It’s bold, balanced, and unapologetically Thai.
Whether it’s the tang of calamansi in the southern crab curry or the punchy shrimp paste relish with five kinds of citrus, nahm isn’t just preserving Thai cuisine. It’s pushing things forward without compromise, one dish at a time.
G/F, COMO Metropolitan Bangkok, Sathorn Rd., 02-625-3388. Open daily 6:30-10:30pm.
