Bangkok by Leela Punyaratabandhu

From one of the most respected authorities on Thai cooking comes this beautiful and deeply personal ode to Bangkok, the top-ranked travel destination in the world.

WINNER OF THE ART OF EATING PRIZE

Every year, more than 16 million visitors flock to Thailand's capital city, and leave transfixed by the vibrant culture and unforgettable food they encounter along the way. Thai cuisine is more popular today than ever, yet there is no book that chronicles the real food that Thai people eat every day--until now.

In Bangkok, award-winning author Leela Punyaratabandhu offers 120 recipes that capture the true spirit of the city--from heirloom family dishes to restaurant classics to everyday street eats to modern cosmopolitan fare. Beautiful food and location photography will make this a must-have keepsake for any reader who has fallen under Bangkok's spell.

Leela Punyaratabandhu is the author of Bangkok: Recipes and Stories from the Heart of Thailand, winner of the 2018 The Art of Eating Prize for the best of food book of the year, and Simple Thai Food: Classic Recipes from the Thai Home Kitchen. Since 2008, she has written about Thai cuisine on her cooking blog, SheSimmers.com, which was named the best Regional Cuisine blog in 2012 by Saveur magazine. Leela's writing has appeared in CNN, The Wall Street Journal, Serious Eats, Food52, TASTE, and Dill Magazine. She has been named one of the 100 Greatest Home Cooks of All Time by Epicurious. Leela's work focuses on Thai food and Thai restaurants both in the United States and Thailand, and she divides her time between Chicago and Bangkok.
