Saucey, owned by dermatologist by day and restaurateur by night, Komgrib Leelaake, along with a few partners, is lighting up quiet Soi Sathorn 8. The chicken eatery gleans inspiration from a laidback California-style beach club— complete with a fun beer bomb gimmick—to provide Sathorn’s post-work crowd with a vibrant beach-like escape. Tropical elements like a thatched roof and rattan furniture set the tone for a chillaxed vibe you’d want to sink into after eight hours of mindnumbing work. An outdoor patio, perfect for chilling with a cool glass of beer leads into an airconditioned dining room with warm lighting and bare walls. Fried chicken (starting from B159/6 pieces) is the name of the game at Saucey, and these birds are served drenched in one of six sauces available. There’s Saucey Original, an intensely addictive dressing flavored with fish sauce and palm sugar, and Saucey Signature, an indulgent option made from prawn fat and chili paste. Komgrib’s passion for travelling is reflected in the Seoul Sauce, which makes use of Korea-imported gochujang (red chili paste), and the African Teriyaki, which has the refreshing notesof ginger and wild honey. For the all-aroundcomfort food experience, pair your fried poultrywith side dishes like onion rings (B89) or hashbrowns (B89). To boost the fun, Saucey proffers bomb shots that go into glasses of Leo beer. Choose to get massively sloshed on a slushy bomb (B180), soju (B190) or umeshu (B250).
