Bangkok Bar Shi to Open in Melrose

A new Asian restaurant is coming to the northern suburbs of Boston.

According to an article from What Now Boston, Bangkok Bar Shi is going to be opening in Melrose, moving into a space on Main Street in the downtown area. The article mentions that Amy Wiwitted and her husband Adisorn Sakkara--who also run Bangkok Bento in Boston's Back Bay, Sweet Rice in Jamaica Plain, and Thai Saap Rice & Noodles Kitchen in Quincy--are behind the new place, which will offer Thai and Japanese dishes and will have a sushi bar. If all goes as planned, Bangkok Bar Shi will likely open sometime in May.

The address for Bangkok Bar Shi is 462 Main Street, Melrose, MA, 02176. Its website can be found at https://www.bangkokbarshi.com/
