Dining at KHAO Wireless Road

Location: Bangkok, Thailand

Located on the iconic Wireless Road, KHAO Wireless Road is a sister restaurant to the renowned KHAO Ekkamai branch, which holds One MICHELIN Star for its high-quality cooking. Stepping into KHAO Wireless Road, one is immediately captivated by the beautiful dining room, creating an elegant and inviting ambience. The attention to detail is apparent, as the restaurant is committed to meticulously crafting Thai cuisine using only the freshest and premium ingredients.

The story behind the brand KHAO is rooted in the significance of rice in Thai cuisine. ‘Khao’ means rice in Thai, symbolizing the staple grain that nourishes our bodies. However, ‘Khao’ goes beyond food; it also represents the essence of gathering, connecting, and enjoying each other’s company. The goal of KHAO is to make the culinary world better understand, appreciate, and love Thai cuisine.

During our dining experience at KHAO Wireless Road, we had the pleasure of trying several delicious dishes that showcased the expertise of the culinary team:

Yum Anchan Thod Grob (Crispy Butterfly Pea Flower Salad):
This dish is a symphony of textures and flavours. Crispy shredded pork, deep-fried butterfly pea flowers, shallots, garlic, and chilies create a delightful crispy element. The combination of these ingredients, along with the tangy dressing, results in a refreshing and vibrant salad.

Larb Ped Gub Foie Gras Thod (Duck Meat in Larb Mixture and Pan-Seared Foie Gras):
This dish combines the flavours of a traditional Isaan larb with the richness of pan-seared foie gras. Minced duck meat is cooked quickly with fish sauce, creating a flavorful larb mixture. Crispy strips of duck skin fried with coriander seeds add a delightful crunch. The addition of pan-seared foie gras elevates the dish to new heights of indulgence.

Mussaman Nong Kae (Lamb Shank in Mussaman Curry):
Mussaman curry is world-renowned for its Indian influence and rich flavours. At KHAO, the lamb shank is simmered in light coconut milk, resulting in tender and flavorful meat. The aromatic spices, such as bay leaves and cardamom, create a beautiful balance with the coconut milk, tamarind water, palm sugar, and fish sauce. This dish is a symphony of flavours and textures.

Pla Nueng Si-Eiw (Steamed Fish with Soy Sauce):
Selected fresh fish of the day is expertly steamed in soy sauce and ginger, allowing the true flavour of the fish to shine through. The controlled heat and cooking time ensure that the fish retains its natural taste and tenderness. This dish exemplifies the art of steaming fish to perfection.

Pad Thai (Thai’s Famous Fried Noodles):
KHAO’s version of Pad Thai pays homage to the traditional recipe from the era of General P. Pibulsongkram. Special dried rice noodles called “Sen Chan” are combined with KHAO’s secret Pad Thai sauce, resulting in a well-balanced and authentic Pad Thai. The dish is a testament to preserving the original flavours while offering a delightful twist.

Khao Niew Mamuang (Sweet Sticky Rice with Mango):
A classic Thai dessert, Khao Niew Mamuang features sweet sticky rice paired with ripe and luscious mango. The combination of the fragrant rice and the creamy mango creates a harmonious blend of flavours and textures, providing a delightful ending to the meal.

Sungkhaya Namtarn Mai Lae Waanyen Som Sainamphung (Caramelized Thai Custard and Mandarin Sorbet):
This dessert is a fusion of flavours and temperatures. The caramelized Thai custard is rich and decadent, while the refreshing mandarin sorbet adds a zesty and tangy element. The combination of textures and contrasting flavours makes for a delightful and memorable dessert.

In conclusion, dining at KHAO Wireless Road is an exceptional experience that showcases the artistry of Thai cuisine. The restaurant’s commitment to using premium ingredients and attention to detail is evident in every dish. From the crispy Butterfly Pea Flower Salad to the indulgent Duck Larb with Foie Gras and the rich and aromatic Mussaman Lamb Shank, each dish highlights the diversity and complexity of Thai flavours. The restaurant’s dedication to preserving and appreciating Thai culinary traditions shines through in their skillful execution. KHAO Wireless Road is a must-visit for those seeking an elevated Thai dining experience in a stunning setting.
