Eitharong moved to Bangkok in 2019 and opened Haawm, described as “a speakeasy with reservations,” out of his aunt's house in Soi On Nut 25, serving seven course meals.[7][8][9][10] Studying under Hanuman Aspler, Eitharong's menu is inspired by classical Thai cuisine and sources local ingredients.[3] Haawm is a play on words, with its Thai transliteration meaning "smells good" and in English is a homophone for "home".[11][12][13][14]
