Khrua Khao Yai

Khao Yai National Park


This open-air hut is hugely popular with visiting Bangkokians because of both the quality of the food and the emphasis on healthy eating, with choices such as mushroom đôm yam and stir-fried sunflower sprouts. The English-language menu is limited, so if you don't see what you want it's worth asking if it's available.
