The entrance on Charoen Krung Road is fairly typical of a two-story shophouse: naked concrete walls, a simple entrance, and a doorbell. The only obvious indication that this isn’t just somebody’s home are the three golden letters S.D.C. — Small Dinner Club.
On the ground floor, Small Dinner Club sports a moody, dark setting with funky Isaan music in the background. Upon entering, you’re asked to wait for all 12 visitors to join for dinner at 6pm. Once everyone has gathered, the staff show diners to the second-floor dining club where they are seated by nametag. The staff hand a piece of paper filled with clues and inspirations for the dishes and encourage everyone to discuss them as the meal progresses.
Like other fine dining establishments in Bangkok, it’s all about redefining concepts and creating a stage for something familiar to become something special….
