DAVID THOMPSON BRINGS AUTHENTIC TASTE OF MODERN BANGKOK TO THE CAPITAL

Launching this October, Long Chim, will open its first-ever residency in Soho, London. 

Located on Rupert Street, Long Chim, which means to ‘come and try’ will take-over the ground floor of Hovarda, presenting accessible menus full with authentic dishes inspired by the food stalls and markets of modern Bangkok.

David Thompson is a world-renowned chef and the culinary lead at Long Chim.  His decision to leave London for Bangkok more than ten years ago left a gap and his return to the capital has been eagerly anticipated.

The concept and menu of Long Chim is anchored around Thompson’s vast knowledge, understanding and interpretation of the dishes that are enjoyed day and night in Bangkok, honed from decades spent exploring the complex network of alleys and laneways that weave across the city.

Chef Patipan ‘Pae’ Jipromma, currently head chef at Thompson’s Michelin-starred Aksorn restaurant in Bangkok, will lead the kitchen team throughout the residency which will run into early 2025. Pae has worked alongside David for more than five years.
