Upstairs of a Thai Eatery somewhere in a small alley of Phrakanong resides a secret little Wonderland, but instead of falling into a rabbit hole to discover biscuits and suspect liquid substances demanding to be consumed, you'll climb a short stairwell to pass through a narrow velvet curtain opening unto an open home kitchen counter. Behind the counter are boyish-men preparing violet coloured pickled treats and pouring pink vodka into tiny ornate glasses. I don't think we're in Bangkok anymore.
Chef/Co founder Alesha Voronin @themoonunderwaterbkk has created a space which is charasmatic as him and uniquely Russian in so many ways. Red polkadot tablecloths move under the candlelight, an old accordian and hat rack with Russian headgear rest on one wall, a projector displays vintage Russian cartoons, black and white portraits line the wall and the tiny room is blanketed in a warm darkness but illuminated by the moonlight coming from the window streaked with rain. We guess whether this is a coincidence to the name.
If you're lucky to have Alesha serve you, he will shower you with tastings of new cold cuts and experimental pickles, whilst filling up your delicious pink potion.
We enjoyed this experience even more than the actual mains of dumplings and sausage which were satisfactory but couldn't beat the delectable Russia sides and accompaniments. We would be eager to return, this time with extra reinforcements and a greater intentions to settle in for a long night of Russian snacks and equally long conversation under the moonlight. #themoonunderwaterbkk #BangkokFoodies #FoodiesOfficialAsia @ The Moon Under Water
