Thiou Restaurant

A pioneer of refined Thai cuisine in Paris, Chef Apiradee Thirakomen, known as Thiou, has shaped the city’s perception of “chic Thai” dining for decades. Formerly established on the Left Bank, her restaurant now resides within the Norman Hotel, serving elegant interpretations of Thai classics made with seasonal French ingredients. Dishes such as langoustine nems, prawn ravioli, and the now-iconic tigre qui pleure have become part of Paris’s culinary vocabulary.
