The location of Le Du is found in an unassuming alley off Silom with an equally unassuming facade. A wide windowed room dimly lit with only a faint glow from the signage. However, the inside is warm and welcoming, minimal yet earthy!

As the name suggests, the restaurant serves seasonal Thai ingredients through a tasting menu of regional dishes.

Excellent service and very creative food presentation. My favourite was the Khao Chae server with Jasmine Sobert! But there are some dishes which are a missed e.g. ant larvae .. but overall a good experience and a must try if it is your first time in Bangkok!
