Wild Nature Artisan, bagel entrepreneurs VOLKS, and Thai chef Andy Yang have teamed up for a limited edition #NYBKKBagel, an original jam-filled and fun-filled bagel that takes inspiration from New York and Bangkok.
The NYBKK Bagel is founded upon the expert experience of Chef Andy Yang of Michelin Star Restaurant, Table 38 in Bangkok (2010) and the initiative of two bright and ambitious entrepreneurs who graduated from colleges in New York to return home to launch their bagel brand, VOLKS.
Volks is a bagel company that sells freshly baked New York-style bagels as well as cream cheese and other snacks. Volk and Sherry, two siblings and fresh graduates, founded a brand that combined their two loves for baking and design.
During their quarantine in Bangkok, they came up with the notion of introducing one of their favorite breakfast staples to Bangkok. Now with seven locations across the city, and a recently opened establishment in Chiang Mai, they have become a popular breakfast haunt for many Bangkok residents.
Chef Andy Yang started cooking as a youngster in 1997 and moved to New York City in 1998. In 2010, his Greenwich Village-based restaurant, Rhong Tiam, earned him international renown as the first Thai restaurant in the United States to be awarded a Michelin star.
The organic urban farm Wild Nature Artisan is founded by sisters Dara Wongwan (Noy) and Tumtim Malaiarisoon (Nai), cultivating artisan jams, organic herbs, and infusions developed a “Sairoong Jam” with Chef Yang to be smothered over the bagels.
The three Thai foodie groups created the #NYBKKBagel, each bringing a unique touch to the table. The bagel filling consists of a thick slathering of Sairoong Jam, toasted Gruyere Cheese, and slices of fresh US Strawberries, as well as your choice of 12 VOLKS Bagels from the classic bagels or special bagels assortment.
