Tel: +66 026599000
Perched atop the Oriental Hotel, this elegant restaurant commands a peerless view of the Chao Phraya river and Thonbuti. The room glistens in gold and silver, from place settings to chandeliers, and the warm tones of golden silks impart a delicious glow. France's most highly esteemed chefs periodically take over the kitchen, making it the apex of French formal French dining in Thailand. The menu features a limited selection of daily specials featuring ingredients from far and wide. There’s some classic selections on offer such as pan-fried goose liver, followed by a pan-fried turbot with potato and leek in a parsley sauce. The beef filet main course, in a red wine sauce, is divine. The set also includes cheese, coffee, and a sinful dessert. The wine list is long and deep with choice. Even if there’s no star name in the kitchen, the simple Le Normandie above the doors is enough.
