Yaowarat: Bangkok Flavours Brought to Hollywood Road.

In the lively stretch between Central’s escalators and Sheung Wan’s Man Mo Temple, Yaowarat has quickly become a must-visit for lovers of authentic Thai cuisine. Named after Bangkok’s iconic street-food district, this intimate 30-seater captures the essence of Thailand with genuine flavours, friendly service, and a rock-and-roll spirit that keeps the atmosphere buzzing.

The menu celebrates both classics and regional specialities. Highlights include Hat Yai Fried Chicken with crispy shallots and sticky rice, Massaman Pork Cheek Curry, seafood fried rice brimming with crab and prawns, and juicy beef skewers with tamarind sauce. For noodle lovers, the fragrant khao soi—a northern Thai coconut curry with braised chicken and egg noodles—is a rare and delightful find in Hong Kong.

Affordability meets excellence here, with set lunches under HK$200 and cocktails crafted to pair with bold, spicy dishes. From the zesty Thai Collins to the fiery 108C, drinks are as inventive as the food. With its vibrant energy, flavoursome plates, and unpretentious charm, Yaowarat is poised to become a new landmark for Thai dining in Hong Kong.
