AddressIconic chef and restaurateur David Thompson, renowned as a world authority on Thai food, is looking for the next shining star to lead the team at his latest outpost Long Chim Gold Coast.
Located in Broadbeach, metres from the beach, the 110 seat restaurant and bar features multiple dining options and open plan kitchen.
Long Chim means to 'come and taste'. The restaurant's relaxed service style is complemented by the sounds of clashing woks and the beating rhythm of the pestle as it hits the mortar. This music makes you laugh a little louder, stay a little longer, and try something new each time.
"At Long Chim we want to capture all the excitement and tastes of the streets of Bangkok. Long Chim is intended to be fun, 'sanuk' as the Thai's say, with food and drinks that everyone loves. Our menu has all the dishes that many Thai's miss the most when away from home", says David.
