A Taste of Thai Summer 📍 Jim Thompson

Tucked inside the serene setting of Jim Thompson Restaurant, this seasonal Thai dish — khao chae — was the absolute highlight. Served in elegant brassware, the chilled jasmine rice in floral-scented water came with a stunning selection of traditional side dishes: sweet shredded pork, stuffed chili, crispy fried shallots, and more. Every bite was delicate, refreshing, and beautifully balanced.

💡 Travel Tip: Khao chae is only available during the hot season (March–May), so don’t miss your chance if you’re in Bangkok then! It’s a rare treat that reflects Thai royal heritage.

Afterward, we visited the Jim Thompson House Museum — just steps away — to round out a cultural afternoon with history, art, and peaceful gardens.

✨ Highly recommended for anyone looking to experience the taste, elegance, and tradition of Thai summer cuisine.
