Gastronomy Chef's Table: A Food Journey from Baan Laem... to Baan Dalaa — this one went all out! Taking everyone on a flavor journey from Samut Songkhram to Koh Phangan in a special meal of 12 dishes at one table for 10 guests. 6 dishes from Baan Laem by Chef Per: fresh shrimp chili paste with fried mackerel, kua curry with sea blite, a bold non-coconut-milk mock curry, razor clams stir-fried with basil and yellow chili, sour tamarind soup, and rice mixed with salt and chili.
The other 6 dishes from Baan Dalaa by Chef Annie: a bold, spicy Koh Phangan-style chili paste; rich coconut-milk chicken massaman; sour orange curry with young tamarind and shrimp, well-balanced and tangy; a fish roe and torch ginger flower salad, the highlight of the meal; boiled clams in a clear, fragrant seafood broth; and sweet squid stir-fried with stink beans and shrimp paste, deeply aromatic.
