Ñam Ñam Pasta and Tapas (Central Embassy)
1031 Rama I Rd, Lumphini, Pathum Wan, Bangkok 10330
Nam Nam is the right choice inside Central Embassy when the goal is Spanish tapas without leaving the mall. The croquetas de jamon and the gambas al ajillo are the dishes that show the kitchen's range most clearly. Order the patatas bravas as a starter and follow with a pasta course from the daily selection. The wine selection from Spanish producers is worth exploring alongside the tapas rather than defaulting to the standard bar options.
Nam Nam Pasta and Tapas operates inside Central Embassy mall in the Lumphini area of Pathum Wan. The kitchen serves Spanish and Mediterranean small plates alongside a pasta section in a format suited to the mall dining crowd. Tapas and pasta can be combined across the meal, allowing a table to share plates before closing with individual pasta courses. Patatas bravas arrive with alioli and a house bravas sauce at the correct crisp exterior the dish requires. Jamon iberico and manchego open the evening as a cured selection alongside marinated olives from the bar. A pasta section covers three or four daily options from shapes matched to sauces prepared that morning. Croquetas de jamon use the correct bechamel-to-jamon ratio for the centre to remain liquid after frying. Gambas al ajillo, the prawns in olive oil with garlic, arrive still sizzling in the ceramic dish from the kitchen. The wine selection covers Spanish producers from Rioja and Ribera del Duero alongside Galician whites for the seafood tapas section. Pintxos, the small Basque-style open-faced snacks on bread, run as a bar counter option for a lighter visit. Churros with chocolate dipping sauce close the meal as the standard Spanish dessert format.
Phloen Chit BTS provides direct access to Central Embassy via the walkway connecting the station to the mall entrance. Grab vehicles use the Central Embassy underground parking approach from Wireless Road. The restaurant operates within mall hours and runs the full menu from lunch through the late evening service. Walk-in tables are generally available through the week outside of weekend lunch hours.
