Sra Bua by Kiin Kiin
Thailand
Sra Bua has entered a new chapter at Siam Kempinski Hotel Bangkok as Sra Bua by Num Weerawat. Previously known as Sra Bua by Kiin Kiin, the restaurant now follows chef Weerawat ‘Num’ Triyasenawat’s approach to contemporary Thai cooking. Thailand’s biodiversity provides the starting point. Ingredients come from farmers, fishermen, foragers and other producers around the country, with seasonality determining the kitchen’s direction. Heritage rice varieties and traditional fermentation give the menus a connection to established food cultures, while contemporary techniques shape their presentation. The restaurant offers two distinct dining experiences, with beverage pairings available to follow the food. Its setting inside the hotel near Siam Paragon makes it an accessible central Bangkok destination for a considered lunch or dinner. The appeal is in discovering how the country’s ingredients and preservation traditions can support a modern restaurant menu.
