Move over, culinary giants, Thailand claimed its spot on the Michelin map! In a historic first, Bangkok’s Sorn has become the only Thai restaurant to snag the coveted three stars in the 2025 Michelin Guide Thailand, unveiled yesterday, November 27.

Led by the visionary Chef Supaksorn Jongsiri, Sorn earned the prestigious accolade for its “excellence, quality, and consistency,” according to Michelin. Since bagging its first star in 2019, the restaurant held onto a two-star rating for five years, steadily dazzling diners with its mastery of Thai cuisine.

Housed in a charming traditional Thai house off Sukhumvit Soi 26, Sorn’s dishes embody authentic flavours elevated to perfection. Unsurprisingly, reservations remain a hot commodity, opening monthly for international foodies.

This year’s guide celebrates a dynamic dining scene with 462 establishments, including seven two-star restaurants, 28 one-star venues, and 156 Bib Gourmand entries. Among the new stars, Côte by Mauro Colagreco joins the two-star list, while four fresh names secure one-star status.

Among them are Akkee, known for rustic, no-frills regional Thai dishes; Avant, which blends traditional and modern techniques under a Singaporean chef’s deft hand; Goat, merging Thai, Chinese, and Western influences with a farm-to-table ethos; and Aulis, a Chef’s Table experience showcasing native ingredients. Notably, Akkee in Nonthaburi and Aulis in Phang Nga bring Michelin stars beyond Bangkok’s borders.

Sadly, some big names—Sushi Masato, Canvas, Cadence by Dan Bark, and Khao Ekkamai—lost their stars, proving that Michelin’s standards remain as fierce as ever, reported Bangkok Post.
