At Sanctuary Bangkok, we believe that great dishes tell stories of heritage, innovation, and the land they come from. One of the standout creations on our rooftop dining menu is the Beef Tongue, a luxurious interpretation of Thailand’s iconic Phat Kaphrao.
This dish begins with premium beef tongue, slow-cooked sous vide for hours to achieve unmatched tenderness and depth of flavor. The result is melt-in-your-mouth meat with rich, savory notes that linger long after the last bite. Layered atop is a punchy Phat Kaphrao sauce, a bold blend of garlic, chili, and holy basil that pays homage to one of Thailand’s most beloved street food dishes — reimagined for the sky.
To add texture and a sense of elevated rusticity, we top the dish with crisp fried kale leaves and fried holy basil, creating a balance of crunch and umami that awakens the palate.
Perfect as a shared small plate or a luxurious solo indulgence, this dish embodies Sanctuary’s approach to modern Thai cuisine locally inspired, globally refined.
