The Thai hot pot restaurant chains that are institutions of Bangkok family dining.
Founded 1962 — MK is Thailand's most beloved restaurant chain, serving Thai suki hot pot; yellow signs everywhere; family celebrations happen here; reliable and very Thai.
The other classic Bangkok suki chain — Coca Suki has been serving since 1957; slightly higher-end than MK; good for groups.
A bubbling pot of broth arrives; you order raw ingredients; cook at the table; dip in the red suki sauce; repeat until full — simple and social.
Many standalone suki restaurants offer AYCE from 199–399 THB — popular with students and young Thais; quality varies but the concept works.
A distinctive Thai addition — a red, slightly sweet and garlicky dipping sauce with lime and chilli, quite different from Chinese hot pot dips and part of what makes Thai suki its own thing.
MK has branches in nearly every mall and shopping centre in Bangkok, making it one of the most reliably findable restaurant options for a quick, familiar meal anywhere in the city.
