Former Atlantic Monthly food critic Jarred Wrisley wanted a place where foodies could enjoy top notch Thai street food without having to sit on stools in the heat, and his converted Chinese shophouse restaurant is now the talk of the town, with divine northern haeng lay Burmese curry and roasted larb phet duck salad heading a menu full of Thai culinary delights. Wrisley's sleek eatery in fashionable Thong Lor is popular amongst both locals and expats, as the ingredients are fresh, spices not toned down, and yet the owner's unique twists and experimentations are what give the dishes that extra pizzazz and set Soul Food Mahanakorn a world apart from other dining options.

EXPERT TIPS BY:

Bangkok Local Expert
- Thonglor's Best Restaurants, Asian: "Food is not the only reason to come to SFM. Wrisley studied with renown bartender Markus Bernthaler, creating signature drinks based on local ingredients to complement the food. Chilies, lemongrass, and kaffir lime all feature in the double pour cocktails, and the lycheegrass Collins or jai yen yen alone are worth a visit."
- Best for Thonglor's Best Restaurants Because: From signature cocktails to down to earth great Thai food, Soul Food Mahanakorn has it all.
- Best for Asian Because: Soul Food Mahanakorn has one of the best combinations of ambiance, great local food, and smashing cocktails to boot to be found in town.
