Closing the summer season with a bang, Sarran and Kaenkrung have put together a limited-run tasting built around khao chae – Thailand’s very unique royal summer dish – and the history of the Wat Arun neighbourhood. The experience plays out as a multi-course set, starting with traditional snacks before moving into the hero khao chae course, inspired by the architecture and prangs of Wat Arun, a long-standing symbol of Thonburi. From there, the meal continues through classic Thai elements, ending on a more decorative, dessert-led note. It is as much about storytelling as it is about the food, with each course echoing a piece of local history or cultural reference.
May 2-3. Early bird B1,950 per person, regular B2,500. Kaenkrung, Arunamarin, Bangkok Noi. Advance booking required. From 5pm
