Food

High-end Isan (northeastern Thai) cuisine, creatively presented in a comfortable setting, attracts an engaging crowd of Paragon flaneurs, tourists and after-work locals. The menu is long and varied, and portions are generous, good for sharing, Thai-style. Start with soft-shell crab with som tam (Thai papaya salad), the lightly fried crab crunchy on big squares of red cabbage. Move on to steamed pork larb dumplings, spiced perfectly with chilli, and the signature appetiser, a large plate brimming with Isan moo yaw and naem sausages, deep-fried pork and chicken wings, sliced ginger, scallions and coriander. Dip juicy strips of grilled tenderloin in jaew dip, and chew with a pinch of fragrant black, green or white sticky rice. Spicy snakeskin fish salad is generous but light. Tom yum, flavoured with coconut and lemongrass, and filled with crab, shrimp, mussel and squid, is exquisite.

Setting

A spacious room decorated with wrought-iron birdcages, kites and wooden tables. The outdoor terrace, with burbling pond and folk music, makes Bangkok seem far away.
