![]() Maenam Restaurant Review: Chef Angus An garnered a loyal following at his minimalist Gastropod restaurant in Kitsilano before changing the concept to Thai during the 2009 economic downturn. An trained with David Thompson at London’s restaurant Nahm. Each year he and his Bangkok-born wife/partner Kate Auewattanakorn travel to a different region of Thailand and return home to refocus their menu based on regional discoveries and reinterpretations of traditional Thai dishes. Inspired offerings from their latest foray to Southern Thailand include starters of yum mamuang, a crispy lingcod fish cake salad with cashews sautéed in pork fat; and tom som plah, a beautifully balanced aromatic hot-and-sour soup with sablefish and plenty of dill. From the north, hor neung gai, a chicken curry textured with toasted rice, and pea eggplants steamed in banana leaves are “must-orders.” Two tasting menus---the chef's at $30 and the $45 Royal Thai---offer good value. A refreshing cocktail list with informed beer and wine choices and professional service enhance this serious Thai experience. |
