Few had heard of new German cuisine when twin chefs Thomas and Mathias Suhring began serving elevated takes on kazespatle (Bavarian pasta made with cheese) and smoked trout at their restaurant, Suhring, in Bangkok, at the start of last year.
Less than a year after launching, however, the eatery debuted at No. 13 on the 2017 list of Asia's 50 Best Restaurants and it has become one of the most popular fine-dining restaurants in the Thai capital. The duo draw on their work experiences in Italy and the Netherlands, plus nine years in Bangkok, to bring contemporary German food to Asian audiences.
The Suhring brothers talked with The Japan Times about their upcoming collaboration dinner events in Tokyo, which will take place at the Michelin-starred restaurant Florilege on Aug. 10 and 11.
