Elephant District brings Bangkok riverside street food to Dumbo. Executive Chef Ekapol “Top” Aranyawikul's menu features Krapow Moo Krob, stir-fried crispy pork belly with Thai holy basil, chili, and garlic inspired by his mother’s recipe; and Brooklyn Bridge Pad Thai with jumbo prawn. In keeping with our riverside vibe we serve a wealth of other fish and seafood: Yum Pla Krob, crispy tuna with mango, tomato, peanuts, and chili lime dressing; Choo Chee Pla, fried branzino in a fragrant Southern Thai coconut red curry with basil, bell pepper, and lime leaves; and Khao Soi Pu Nim, soft shell crab in dry Northern curry with egg noodles and crispy fried noodles as well as Khao Pad Tom Yum Talay, spicy and tart seafood fried rice with giant prawn, mussels, and squid flavored with galangal, makrut lime leaves, and chili. Our restaurant is named for Tha Chang Wang Luang, Bangkok’s Elephant Pier on the banks of the Chao Praya River where the elephants of King Rama I were bathed in the late 18th Century.
