Rambuttri, in Munro House, welcomed its first customers last Thursday, June 20.
It is the second venture in Leeds for owner and chef Komgree Santatkollakarn, better known as Guy, who also owns Phranakhon in York Place.
But this venue is designed to complement the other site, which opened in 2019, and offers more than just tapas dishes.
Guy has carefully-curated the menu with dishes that are “lesser-known” to the British public but are reminiscent of his own childhood, growing up in Thailand.
Here are 10 pictures inside Leeds’ newest Thai restaurant.
