Sanook Kitchen at Bedok Mall serves everyday Thai food in a fun, family-friendly setting — the name comes from the Thai word 'sanook', meaning enjoyment and good vibes, and that spirit runs through the whole menu. Founded in Singapore in 2018 and part of Minor Food Singapore, the brand has grown to 25 locations islandwide by 2024, with this outlet in the basement level of Bedok Mall bringing those bold, vibrant flavours to the east.
The menu is built on genuine Thai spices and fresh ingredients, covering everything from appetisers like homemade prawn cakes to soul-soothing soups, fiery curries, zesty salads, wok-fried dishes and seafood. Standouts include the Signature Superbowl of creamy tom yum soup with seafood, pineapple fried rice, Thai basil chicken rice, pad thai, steamed seabass with chili and lime, and claypot prawn tang hoon. Desserts and drinks round things out with mango sticky rice with coconut milk and Thai iced green milk tea. Dishes come in generous portions at wallet-friendly prices, and the menu keeps evolving with new additions.
It is an easy spot for a quick lunch, a casual dinner or a spontaneous gathering — whether you're dining solo or with the whole family. Note that the restaurants do not accept table reservations, so simply walk in; enquiries and feedback can be sent by email.
Tucked away in the basement of Bedok Mall at #B2-44, Sanook Kitchen brings the bold, comforting flavours of Thailand to one of Singapore's busiest neighbourhood malls. The name says it all: 'Sanook' is the Thai word for 'enjoyment' and 'good vibes,' and that spirit shapes everything about the experience — great food, good company, and an easy-going, family-friendly atmosphere where smiles and laughter are always on the menu.
Sanook Kitchen was founded in Singapore in 2018 with a simple mission: to bring the vibrant tastes of Thailand to the local dining scene in a fun, lively setting, without breaking the bank. From day one, the focus has been on authentic Thai dishes perfect for everyday enjoyment — whether you're dining solo, grabbing a quick lunch, or settling in for a casual dinner with the whole family. The concept grew quickly: by 2024, Sanook Kitchen had expanded to 25 locations across Singapore, becoming a household dining destination and part of the country's vibrant food scene. It is a concept by Minor Food Singapore.
What keeps regulars coming back is the kitchen's commitment to heart-made flavours. Chefs combine the freshest ingredients with genuine Thai spices to create dishes that are both comforting and exciting — fiery curries, zesty Thai salads, soul-soothing soups, and generous sharing sets. Every bite is designed to transport you straight to the heart of Thailand, while staying affordable for everyone.
The menu reads like a tour of Thailand's best-loved dishes. Seafood lovers gravitate to the Signature Superbowl — a Creamy Tom Yum Soup with seafood that has become one of the restaurant's calling cards — alongside the Clear Tom Yum Seafood for those who prefer the classic tangy broth. Other highlights include the Pineapple Fried Rice, Thai Basil Chicken Rice, Pad Thai Noodles, Seafood Prawn Omelette, Stir-fried Beef with Kai Lan, and Claypot Prawn Tang Hoon.
For something more special, the Steamed Seabass with Chili and Lime delivers that quintessential Thai balance of heat, sourness and freshness. Start with the Homemade Prawn Cakes, and finish the way every Thai meal should end: with Mango Sticky Rice with Coconut Milk and a glass of Thai Iced Green Milk Tea. The ever-evolving menu means there is always something fresh to try, with new dishes introduced while staying true to the essence of Thai cuisine.
Sanook Kitchen is built for real life — casual, unpretentious, and welcoming. Dishes are served in generous portions at pocket-friendly prices, making it easy to enjoy a satisfying Thai meal any day of the week. Whether it's a quick lunch break, a relaxed family dinner, or a spontaneous gathering with friends, the extensive menu offers something for everyone: vibrant appetisers, aromatic soups, rich spicy curries, and indulgent seafood delights.
The vibe is cosy and family-friendly, the perfect place to gather, celebrate, and savour life's little joys. It's the kind of spot where solo diners feel just as comfortable as large families, and where wallet-friendly prices mean you can indulge without hesitation.
One thing to note before you go: Sanook Kitchen does not accept table reservations at any of its restaurants, so plan for a walk-in visit. The Bedok Mall basement location makes it an easy stop while shopping or running errands in the neighbourhood.
Come for the food, stay for the fun — and experience the everyday joy of Thai cuisine, your way, every day. Sawasdee!
