Fun, playful and modern. Since going through a revamp, this industrial-chic restaurant with its large open kitchen is often filled with a lively buzz. A fermentation room front and center of the restaurant is a curious wonderland of chefs’ concoctions — peek in and you’ll see infused mushroom sauces or fermented coconut creams.

These delicious creations are slathered on dishes as grilled river prawn, in house spice, prawn head emulsion, Khao Sung Yod. We’re nuts for the new dessert “Tofu Nam Khing”. To go with your dinner are equally fun drinks like a Thai rice wine fermented in the house to give the drink a fuller body and slightly sour notes. For a safer bet, try one of head bartender Palm Muttarattana’s cocktails. 80/20 is a chic restaurant helmed by chef-couple ‘Joe’ Napol Jantraget and Saki Hoshino, and the pair bring good food and good fun to the table with an equally interesting drinks menu to match.

THE BUZZ

“80/20’s never afraid of trying new things, and this feels like Ground Zero for a menu that’s only going to improve season after season.” -BK magazine
