Need help with reservations in Bangkok
Anyone in this forum who has been able to get a reservation at Gaggan (best restaurant in Asia)?
I've been trying to secure a reservation for late May, but they have an archaic and frustrating reservation system. They have an online reservation form that after you fill out you get an automatic response message stating that they received your request and that you should wait for confirmation by the restaurant. And then you wait, and wait, and wait, and hear nothing from them; and you don't know if you are going to get the reservation or not. Do not know if I should make alternate plans.
So, if anyone in this forum has been able to secure a reservation there, I would greatly appreciate any input/suggestions.

It was just named, by one organization, as the best restaurant in Asia for third straight year.

Maybe they're just overwhelmed?
You could poke them via FB?

They have a phone line as well but suspect that might be less than ideal?

Edit just checked my e-mails, and they actually confirmed four days after the online booking.

Thank you all for your advice. After waiting 4 weeks, the restaurant finally confirmed the reservation. Glad to go there, but, really a pain of a reservation system.
