Nahm (Thai: น้ำ) is a Thai restaurant in Bangkok, Thailand.[1][2] Originally opened by Australian chef David Thompson in London in 2001, Nahm became the first Thai restaurant to receive a Michelin Star in 2002.[3] Thompson opened Nahm Bangkok in September 2010, closing the flagship London location in December 2012.[4] In April 2018, Thompson left Nahm, and was replaced by Thai-American chef Pim Techamuanvivit.[5][6][7]
Located in the COMO Metropolitan Bangkok in Sathorn, Nahm was awarded its first Michelin Star in the inaugural Michelin Guide Bangkok selection in 2017.[8][9]
London
[edit]Nahm London opened in the COMO The Halkin hotel in Belgravia, London, receiving a Michelin Star within 6 months.[10][11][12][13] Thompson cited the difficulty of importing proper ingredients as a result of strict EU regulations as a reason for Nahm's closure.[14][4]
Bangkok
[edit]Nahm Bangkok opened in the COMO Metropolitan Hotel in 2010, and was listed as Asia's best restaurant in 2014.[15][16] Prin Polsuk was head chef until 2018, and following his and Thompson's departure, Pim Techamuanvivit joined as head chef.[17][18] Nahm's menu has shifted to incorporate new dishes, and more ingredients from smaller producers in Thailand.[7]
