Baan E-San

Ask any of its die-heart fans and the answer is probably the fermented fish paste (yes, the stinky, nose-pinching plaa raa). Baan Isan is one such place that won’t disappoint the true gourmands of northeastern Thai cuisine. Besides whipping up one of the best plaa raa in town, Baan Isan serves up a range of tasty Isan dishes, from som-tam plaa raa to salt-grilled snake head fish. Seating is provided under individually set thatched-roof huts in the garden and in the air-conditioned room. From 18:30 until close, enjoy live folk songs with your meal.
