Get your taste buds ready, Lyon: Thai street food is coming in hot with flavors sizzling in the wok and funky beats filling the air. Street Bangkok is excited to open its very first location outside of Paris, and it’s happening right in the heart of the 1st arrondissement of Lyon. Mark your calendars for June 13th at 15 rue de l’Arbre Sec, just a stone's throw away from the Opera, for a delicious explosion straight from the night markets of Bangkok.

Here, there's no fuss. Street food is experienced to the fullest, unfiltered, non-stop, and without compromise. Behind this wave of spices and flavors are a passionate duo: Norman Kolton, the founder who took Paris by storm in 2015, and Joël Opisso, a savvy entrepreneur from Lyon, who brings this first regional location to life. Their mission? To prove that a city like Lyon, the cradle of French gastronomy, can be electrified by raw, fiery, popular cuisine… that’s also expertly mastered.
The best of Thai street food lands in Lyon
In a 120 m² space spread over two levels, with 60 seated covers, there's takeout, delivery, and service 7 days a week. The decor is set: neon lights, raw walls, shared tables, and a disco ball in the restroom. Yes, it’s a bit wild — and it works! On the plate, Asia is shouting: coconut milk satay skewers, pad thai wrapped in tamarind, creamy curry, and crispy, tender fried chicken with 40 spices. Everything is cooked fresh, right before your eyes, in an atmosphere as fiery as the flames of the wok.
Street Bangkok is the street that vibrates, smokes, and oozes flavors from around the world. And Lyon, ready or not, is going to have to turn up the volume.
