Review

Twins Thomas and Matthias’ culinary tribute to their German roots, sühring, has been a constant in the Bangkok fine dining scene for over five years. In that time, many satisfied diners have passed through the doors of their restored suburban villa. This is a benchmark of gastronomy: diners visit here to be dazzled and indeed, the sühring legacy continues. Over time, restaurants continue to strive for that elusive level of perfection; at sühring , one may experience it firsthand. The villa has seen some careful renovation, making the dining areas slightly more intimate and cosy yet still maintaining an element of spaciousness and luxe.

Upon arrival, perhaps greeted by the twins themselves, one senses that a special experience awaits. The dining room is led by Mathieu Campion, who effortlessly guides diners to tables and knowledgably recommends dishes. Whilst dishes change, there’s consistency in culinary execution on every plate and meticulousness surrounding composition, presentation, and flavour profile. It’s not only evident in the signatures of pork knuckle, sturgeon bite with caviar and the A3 Hokkaido wagyu tenderloin with celeriac, but also in the lesser-seen lamb with pears, beans and bacon.

The wine list, heavy on German offerings, is stellar.
