The debut cookbook from the Food & Wine Best New Chef behind the hit LA restaurant group, Night + Market, with 100 recipes for fun and edgy Thai cooking.
KRIS YENBAMROONG has been featured in every major food publication, from Bon Appetit to Food & Wine to the New York Times, and was a James Beard Award semifinalist. He also has ties to the fashion and art worlds- he worked for photographer Richard Kern; he has appeared in ads for J Crew and in magazines like Details and Esquire and on Vice.com. His restaurant group, Night + Market, is arguably the most talked about, lauded, and nationally recognized restaurant in Los Angeles.
"What Kris is doing is nothing short of revolutionary in the Thai
food game. You see, just calling Kris a Thai chef would be doing a
disservice to him and to other young chefs who are shaping the
future of Asian American food." - Andy Ricker
"Every time I'm in L.A., I have to eat a meal at Night + Market.
It's one of my favorite spots anywhere. I love Thai food but know
little about cooking it, and I'm too embarrassed to ask! So this
book makes me insanely happy."--David Chang
"Forget the blurbs - buy this book and start having tasty Thai
bites at home! Full disclosure: I have not read this book and am
being compensated in khao soi for endorsing it."--Aziz
Ansari "Finally, from the brain, heart and kitchen of Kris
Yenbamroong, comes Night + Market, a guide to cooking his
genius, flavor exploding cuisine at home."--Gwyneth
Paltrow
"I didn't know that cookbooks could do all of this: be honest and
eye-opening, inspiring to both chefs and diners, teach, make you
laugh, and make you want to cook. Honestly, I haven't cooked from a
cookbook in a long time, but I cooked from Night + Market
the first day I had it. Tom Khar Soup. I couldn't resist. It sucked
me in and I haven't stopped thinking about it since."--Danny
Bowien "Night + Market restaurant is the culinary equivalent of
going to the coolest warehouse art party knowing the crowd will be
hip, and the garage band will rock, but assuming the art might be
so-so, only to discover that the cinderblock walls are adorned with
masterpieces from Warhol, Basquiat, Rauschenberg, Kahlo, etc...Your
mouth will thank you for introducing it to Night +
Market."--Shepard Fairey "It's always been a wine place to
me, which happens to have the additional bonus of searing, amazing
Northern Thai food. I like that I can get my chili endorphin rush
along with some cloudy macerated white wine."--James
Murphy
"Kris's Night + Market is doing for Thai food what I did with pizza
and other classics at Spago three and a half decades ago:
reimagining them for adventurous modern tastes and creating the
kind of food that's meant to be enjoyed with wine and other drinks
and shared happily with your friends. I'm excited to see how easy,
accessible, and delicious Kris's recipes are, and how
entertainingly, smartly, and honestly he writes about them, and I
can't wait to cook his food in my own kitchen for my family and
friends."--Wolfgang Puck "If you love Thai food but have
always been too intimidated to try cooking it, this
book will be your new best friend. All the recipes are delicious,
bold, and will impress both you and your friends."--Buzzfeed
"Sure, Thai food is great with booze, but you don't have to drink
to appreciate its nuance. "Night + Market," from LA chef Kris
Yenbamroong, offers recipes for "grandma" dishes such as pad see ew
and fish curry noodles, reimagined dishes (grilled catfish tamales,
Isaan salmon ceviche), snacks and party dishes (roasted green chile
dip, chicken wings, uni garlic fried rice), and more. He also
argues we should be drinking more wine with Thai food."--The Boston
Globe "A fun and deeply personal read"--The San Francisco Chronicle
"LA chef Kris Yenbamroong's first cookbook serves as an enticing
gateway drug into the world of Thai cookery, and readers need not
have patronized his restaurant by the same name to be thoroughly
dazzled by the recipes contained within. A straight-up fun
read."--Eater
