Taste Phuket Old Town’s new wave at Carito’s

Carito’s – Sukhumvit 22’s Latin restaurant with a Thai twist – hosts a two-night kitchen and cocktail takeover by three progressive Phuket Old Town venues. Local Canteen handles the food, while Dibuk House and shhh. pour the drinks.

Chef Korn brings Local Canteen’s much-loved small-plate take on Southern Thai food, with à la carte dishes including lamb in Malay Muslim-style ko lae curry, Phuket-style prawn fritters and a twist on khao yam, the South’s much-loved rice salad. The regional approach continues at the bar; Wynn from Dibuk House and Boom from shhh. use local ingredients in highballs made with Songkhla’s Anong gin and tropical cocktails sharpened with funky budu fish sauce.

Aug 28-29. Carito’s, 547-549 Sukhumvit Soi 22. 6pm-11pm.
