Located on Soi Phiphat 2, Som Tam Jay So (ร้านส้มตำเจ๊โส) is an Isaan restaurant in the heart of Bangkok's business district. This popular eatery, known for its authentic and spicy cuisine, can often be seen packed out by office workers at lunchtime. The restaurant has a range of classic dishes from northeastern Thailand, such as som tam (green papaya salad), tam pa (jungle pounded salad), som tam sua (papaya salad with noodles) and kaw moo yang (grilled pork neck). Those with a brave palette won't leave disappointed as the chefs aren't afraid to pack dishes with plenty of dried chilies, giving them a flavourful punch. The chicken wings, laab neua (beef salad) and tom saeb moo (Isaan pork soup) are all recommended, and enjoy them all with a sweet tamarind sauce. Enjoy a real taste of Isaan without ever leaving Bangkok!
