What is it ?– A Restaurant serving authentic Thai food currently at number 37 on Asia`s top 50 Restaurants list.

Where is it ? – Bangkok city centre down a quiet soi (street). It`s really easy to get there so just take the Skytrain to Thong lor BTS station and it`s a 5 minute walk from there. Or take a Tuk Tuk (but don’t pay more than 200 Baht) .We took two motorbike Taxis for 100 Baht (£2.50 / $3) each.

Head Chef – Bo Songvisava (Asia`s best female Chef 2013) and Australian Chef Dylan Jones. “Bo” and ”Lan” = Bo.Lan ….Get it ? Both met whilst working for Chef David Thompson at “Nahm “ restaurant.

What should I expect ? – Genuine, well researched and very authentic Royal Thai recipes incorporating the best of Home Cooking and Spicy Street food. The finest Asian / Artisan produce sourced from farms and suppliers throughout Thailand.

Must try dish – The BoLan balance menu comprising of a Thai Salad , a Stir fry , a Soup , a Curry and a Spicy Relish. This menu  will demonstrate exactly what BoLan is all about.

What will it cost me ? – The best value way to try BoLan food is the set lunch (photo above). We paid 1,880 Baht per person (£45 / $59) f. The larger BoLan balance menu in the evening is 3280 Baht (£79 / $103)

My thoughts , What`s good ? – The Ambience of the traditional styled restaurant and the meticulously researched recipes by the totally dedicated owners.

Any Negatives ? Ermmmmmm……. No
