In news that won't suprise too many in the know about global restaurant trends, it is being reported that Thailand will soon have its own Michelin Guide.
Eater reports that following a pledge of financial support from the Tourism Authority of Thailand, we should see the Guide by the close of 2017. According to BK, the inaugural guide is expected to focus solely on Bangkok, before expanding for later editions.
Bangkok is of course one of the gastronomic focal points of Southeast Asia, with eight entries on the 2017 Asia's 50 Best Restaurants list, including three times winner Gaggan. Along with Gaggan Anand's eponymous restaurant, you can also expect the likes of David Thompson'sNahm and Sühring to feature on Michelin's first foray into Thailand.
This follows the release of the inaugural Michelin Guide to Singapore last year, showing that Michelin is taking notice of the region's hugely exciting and varied gastronimical offerings. We wonder whether it'll adopt a similar approach to its Singapore guide, and take Bangkok's enviable street food scene into account?
