The name of the restaurant translates to "like it used to be," and it really is a humble affair, serving old school Thai recipes up on the second floor above a futsal field. The owners here are a father and son team, and they are committed to preserving traditional Thai dishes, shared usually between large families over long and slow meals. Standouts include the pet palo stewed pork belly with duck eggs in a gravy stew, as well as the stuffed peppers in sweet curry, and the delicious red curry with pineapple. The menu selections are quite large and many of them are vintage family recipes. This is homestyle Thai dining with no frills at its best, and worth navigating the narrow lane the restaurant is in to find it.

- Homestyle: "The nearest BTS skytrain station is Ari, and from here you have to navigate inside of Soi Sailom 1 to find the restaurant, located above the Frank and Release futsal field."
- Best for Homestyle Because: For old school Thai homestyle meals, Yang Gao Gorn is the real deal.
