Gaggan at Louis vuitton worth it?
I've been to both and the LV collaboration is a completely different experience from the original Gaggan. The food is more playful and theatrical at LV, with dishes that reference both Indian cuisine and luxury branding in a way that feels intentional rather than gimmicky. But the price is significantly higher and you're paying for the setting and the name as much as the meal. If you want the pure Gaggan focus on progressive Indian flavors without the fashion house markup, the original spot on Soi 31 is still excellent and more relaxed.
ngl I think the LV collab is more about the experience than the food itself. The original Gaggan on Soi 31 still serves that insane progressive Indian menu but without the fashion house markup and the waiters explaining every bite like it's a museum piece. If you've got the cash and want the story for instagram, sure, but I'd rather do the original and hit up a place like 80/20 for dinner the same week. The LV one also has that weird "we're in a luxury mall" energy that kinda kills the vibe for me.
honestly if you've got the budget and want the full spectacle, the LV collab is a trip. the dishes come with stories and the whole vibe is very "we are in a luxury store" which some people love. but for me, the original Gaggan on Soi 31 is where the soul is. the tasting menu there is still wild and inventive, and you're not paying extra for the handbag wallpaper. also way easier to get a reservation at the original, the LV one books out months in advance. imo go to the original and spend the leftover cash on a killer meal at Sorn or something
best som tam in Bangkok? Krua Dok Mai Kao 2026
yeah Krua Dok Mai Kao is solid but if you're up for a detour, try Som Tum Nua near Siam Square. their som tam pu pla ra is insane if you like the fermented fish sauce kick. way more pungent than the On Nut spot, just less grilled chicken options
