The Athénée Hotel, a Luxury Collection Hotel, Bangkok

Explore the nuances of Thai cuisine served in a dramatic setting that celebrates old and new Thailand with equal reverence. Our talented local chefs exhibit their rigorous training with masterful fruit and vegetable carvings that rival the skills of the royal chefs. Drawing upon the recipes of Royal Thai cuisine, the menu features traditional dishes from all four regions of the country as well as new creations that emphasize modern techniques and lighter ingredients. Particularly popular dishes include Yam Som O, a spicy pomelo salad with tiger prawns and minced chicken, and Khao Ob Subparod, a baked rice dish with chicken, tiger prawns, and cashew nuts served in a pineapple. As a delightful finishing touch, the restaurant serves complimentary Thai petites fours with your tea or coffee.

The restaurant setting echoes the intersection of old and new in its décor. A dramatic floor of green and brown stone tiles flows throughout. Modern armchairs stand around sleek dark wood tables, while a wall of upholstered benches spans one wall. Original wooden oars used to row the royal barges hang on the walls as artwork—a vivid reminder of Thai’s regal history. Intricate wood sculptures carved in Thai motifs stand at the entrance of the room. Dishes are served in locally crafted stoneware—adding warmth and further authenticity to the ambiance. Traditional music plays every evening in the background.

A separate private dining room hosts up to 12 guests for private celebrations or smaller business functions.
