Thai cuisine has long been a firm favourite with many Singaporeans, and Bangkok Jam goes a good way towards satiating the nation’s cravings. Offering up a smorgasbord of delectables that are sure to make your mouth water, this restaurant expertly tempers classic Thai spices and cooking techniques with a modern sensibility for a combination that works.

Have an appetising serving of the restaurant’s Tod Mun Pla, and savour the explosion of flavours with every bite you take – you won’t be forgetting these fish cakes in a hurry, that’s for sure - or dip your spoon into a delightfully spicy bowl of Tom Yum Goong, which comes with helpings of sweet and juicy prawns to add on to the sour tang. If you’re a dessert person, then the Tap Tim Krob, or red rubies topped with coconut ice cream, will be a perfect, refreshing way to end your meal. You won’t regret having the crowd-pleasers either, like the heavenly Khao Neaw Ma Muang (mango sticky rice), with its pleasantly chewy and fragrant rice.

Although it’s perfectly understandable if all your attention is focused on trying not to stuff your face with the goodies on offer at Bangkok Jam, or if you’re actually doing the deed and completely disregarding your surroundings (we get it), do take some time to soak in the ambience. With its casual décor reminiscent of a crowded street in the Thai capital, it’s hard not to be charmed. So make a booking at Bangkok Jam soon – you won’t regret it! (Jan 2018)
