"Long Chim is happy, good Thai food," pronounces David Thompson, "It means 'come and taste.' That's what I want now; everyone who eats here to have a tremendously good time."
"The menu at Long Chim, London is short and to the point and Thompson insists it is familiar street food from Bangkok, where he has lived since meeting his husband, Tanongsak Yordwai in 1988."
"The already buzzing restaurant on the ground floor of Hovarda Soho... has been given a makeover with wacky wall murals, mahogany cabinets, and neon signs conceived by Simon Dewhurst."
"It is the kind of dishes that Thais miss the most when away from home and want to eat," he says, yet, the dishes have the intensity of flavor, the nuance, the exceptional balance, and the singing and dancing on the palate I recall being blown away by when Nahm opened at the Halkin hotel back in 2001.
