![The Best New Restaurants in Montreal [December 2025]](/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fthemain.ghost.io%2Fcontent%2Fimages%2F2025%2F12%2FTHEMAIN_bar-minou_20251010_0067.jpg&w=2560&q=75)
Opening in the Plateau on April 28, 2024 after a soft launch lasting a couple of weeks, the Thai noodle shop Bangluck is the latest from Laotian Montrealer Chitakone Phommavongxay (Chita) and Thai Montrealer Siriluksamee Rangthong (Nim).
Having made a name for themselves through their first venture of the Thai street food spot Thammada, followed by a partnership in Jesse Mulder’s standout Thai restaurant Pichai, their newest spot doesn’t try to flip any scripts.
If anything, it breaks ground by being an homage to tradition: “Originally, Thammada came from the goal of spreading the word about Thai street food, all the iconic dishes—pad thai, pad see ew, curries—but I knew the varieties of Thai food could be explored further,” Nim says.
