But who is Num ?
Chef Weerawat “Num” Triyasenawat is known for his mastery of authentic Thai cooking flavors and techniques. He is passionate about using local and fresh ingredients to create tasty and colorful dishes.
Num believes that cuisine itself is rich living history and Chef Num is fascinated by the challenge of bringing the past to meet the present to shape the next chapter of Thai cuisine.
Chef Num follows a philosophy of discovering forgotten foods and plants and bringing that passion and curiosity back to his guests’ tables. 80% of the produce used is locally grown (farm & edible forest), and the remaining food comes from many sources such as foraging at special educational events held in different parts of Thailand.
His restaurant Samuay and Sons is located in Udon Thani, Thailand and is renowned for offering delicious traditional Thai cuisine.
