Juumpo (จุ๋มโป้)
A Peranakan family-style restaurant inside Hotel Gahn, run by a mother and son. It has been listed in the Michelin Guide for several years.
Located on the ground floor of Hotel Gahn in Bang Niang/Khuk Khak. The name comes from the owner’s grandfather, who worked as a cook (juumpo) on Chinese ships more than 80 years ago, and the recipes were handed down from him. The décor is Sino-Portuguese in style. The restaurant is open-air with no air conditioning, and the seats are next to a small pool and garden. Signature dishes include Peranakan-style coconut milk prawn soup, shrimp paste chilli dip, sweet-and-sour fried fish and pineapple fried prawns. Michelin rates it ฿฿, which means good value.
