Err, the casual Thai restaurant run by beloved chef couple Bo Songvisava and Dylan Jones of Bo.lan fame, has found a new home at ASAI Bangkok Sathorn hotel. Priding itself on serving authentic “rustic Thai” food—the food you’d find at street kitchens around Thailand—Err churns out simple fare that has been elevated with richer flavors, fine ingredients, and pretty presentation. This is the eatery’s second outpost in Bangkok; the other one is in Thonglor.
Many of Err’s signatures have been reintroduced, including the can’t-miss deep-fried chicken skin served as a whole chicken. (Eat as is or dip in homemade sriracha sauce.) Other favorites, such as the soft and tender steamed egg topped with flavored eggplant, hot and spicy pork knuckle soup with fried shallots, and spicy red curry with pork knuckle, are also on the menu. Complement your meal with jasmine rice and side dishes such as green mango in spicy fish sauce (so delicious that we ordered two). Err gets all the flavors right—sweet where it should be and just enough spice that you can tolerate. The drawbacks? Servings are small—almost like izakaya food—and they’re far from cheap. But despite burning holes in our pocket, Err at Sathorn 12 is one restaurant that we’ll be coming back to.
