Je Ngor is a restaurant that speaks Chinese with a heavy Thai accent, or maybe it’s the other way round. What is indisputable is that the recipe is popular. The chain has gone from one to six outlets in about seven years. This outlet is simple, modern and airy with lovely views of the Sathorn business district. People come for the huge selection of delicious prawn, lobster and crab dishes. It’s usually heavily booked, so call ahead.

The heavily Szechuan menu in the relaxed Man Ho proves that you really can get authentic Chinese food in Bangkok, despite the often repeated myth that the Chinese have been here for so many generations they can’t help but be influenced. Of course, hiring a chef from Hong Kong might help. It also benefits from the Marriott Hotel’s extensive wine list. Man Ho is expensive by Thai standards, but it has a loyal following among local Chinese families.

This charming place in the heart of Bangkok’s business district has been an institution for about 20 years. There’s lots on the menu, most of it delicious—the ‘drunken prawns’ and shark-fin soup to [name] two—and the lunchtime dim sum is a real delight. But there is one dish for which this restaurant is famous and the reason most people come here—Peking duck. Simply delectable.
