Plaza Khao Gaeng Borough Yards are seeking a Floor Manager to join their team. The successful candidate will be friendly, personable and passionate about all things food and drink. This is a fantastic opportunity for an experienced Floor Manager looking for a new role in an award winning, critically acclaimed group.
The Restaurant Plaza Khao Gaeng is a celebration of Thailands coast-to-jungle cooking, serving Khao gaeng dishes, which translates broadly as curry over rice. A kaleidoscope of curries rich with fresh coconut milk, aromatic curry pastes, and fermented fish for depth, alongside searingly hot stir-fries lifted with cooling herbs - all designed to be mixed, matched and spooned over rice.
In Thailand, the most popular khao gaeng spots expand to fill whatever space they can. Plaza takes inspiration from one such restaurant in Bangkok, now spread through an old cinema - curries laid out in gleaming trays beneath a faded faade, climbing the stairs to the former box office. Its anytime comfort food, offering pause and shade from the heat and noise of the street outside.
Our second Plaza Khao Gaeng opened in Borough Yards in November 2025, flanking the bustle of Borough Market, much as it would in Southern Thailand. Here, we take cues from electric markets, roadside stalls and family kitchens of the South - introducing new dishes alongside favourites from Thailands deepest southern provinces
