Le Du

No.30 World's 50 Best 2025 — elite chef

Veronica's Take

Chef Thitid "Ton" Tassanakajohn is the culinary force behind Le Du, Bangkok's No.30-ranked restaurant on the World's 50 Best list for 2025, where his contemporary tasting menu is a testament to his mastery of technique and obsession with seasonal ingredients. The name Le Du, meaning "seasons" in Thai, is a nod to his commitment to letting the best local produce dictate the flow of his dishes, which are as innovative as they are rooted in Thai tradition. Beyond Le Du, Tassanakajohn has built a restaurant empire that spans from the humble, comforting plates at Baan to the sophisticated, high-end experience of Nusara, proving his versatility and deep understanding of Thai cuisine in all its forms.
