Prepare to embark on an extraordinary culinary odyssey in the captivating city of Bangkok this winter season. Waldorf Astoria Bangkok cordially invites you to immerse yourself in the tapestry of this vibrant and culturally metropolis with their all-new “Waldorf Delights” package. This bespoke offering is meticulously crafted to envelop you in opulence, tantalise your palate and provide a tapestry of authentic encounters.
As the balmy breath of autumn gently caresses the city, Waldorf Astoria Bangkok stands as the quintessential haven from which to explore the myriad treasures of the Thai capital. The hotel’s elegant and contemporary design seamlessly melds traditional Thai influences with the pinnacle of modern luxury.
The “Waldorf Delights” experience begins with a sumptuous daily breakfast at The Brasserie, where guests are invited to indulge in a lavish selection of both local and international delicacies. Regarded as one of Bangkok’s finest breakfast offerings, revel in an all-encompassing feast while gazing upon the hallowed grounds of the Royal Bangkok Sports Club. As night descends, guests can dine at the Front Room, an astonishingly authentic Thai gastronomic haven, or the visually arresting Bull & Bear, both of which promise nightly gourmet set dinners.
Front Room beckons with its array of authentic home-style Thai cuisine, showcasing the eight distinct flavours of Thai culinary artistry: sour, sweet, nutty, salty, spicy, bitter, astringent, and mild. The restaurant’s menu boasts a myriad of appetisers, main courses, and desserts, all inspired by cherished childhood memories of its chefs – akin to the heartwarming nostalgia of home-cooked meals by a loving mother. The set menu includes tantalising signature dishes such as Phla Lai Bua Hoy Shell – Seared Hokkaido Scallop, Lotus Stem, Pomelo, and homemade Chili Paste, along with a selection of main courses such as Nuea Khem Tom Kati – Coconut Broth, Salted Beef Cheek, Shallot, Chili, or Talae Gub Sa-Tor Kua Sauce Kem – Squid, Tiger Prawn, Bitter Bean, and Salted Seafood Oil. Conclude your epicurean journey on a sweet note with the incomparable Maphrao Cheesecake – a fusion of Coconut Cheesecake, Young Coconut Jelly, and White Chocolate Mousse, accompanied by a choice of red, white, or signature cocktails.
For an enchanting evening that pairs delectable cuisine with breathtaking views, Bull & Bear is your place. Perched on the 55th floor, this restaurant specialises in grilled meats and seafood, featuring a live raw bar alongside a custom-made grill. The set menu offers an array of choices, ranging from Lobster Bisque with Smoked Crème Fraiche to 200 days grain-fed Beef Tenderloin with Potato Mousseline, Grilled Broccolini, and Barolo Jus, or Pan-Fried Madai – Japanese Sea Bream, Pickled Mushroom, Sauteed Spinach, Bouillabaisse, and Crème Fraiche. To conclude your culinary odyssey, savour the sublime Baked New York Cheesecake with Panna Cotta, Passion Fruit, and Pineapple, all elegantly paired with a glass of red or white wine. Amidst the glamour, opulent interiors, infectious vibes, and panoramic views, rest assured, there are no wrong decisions here.
Alternatively, guests may opt for the iconic Afternoon Tea, served in the elegant Peacock Alley, a loving tribute to the classic American dishes that originated at the original Waldorf Astoria in New York. This homage infuses a touch of history and culinary eminence into the afternoon tea ritual. Savour a medley of delectable treats, including savoury delights like Crab Cake with Sesame and Thousand Island Dressing and a Foie Gras Tower adorned with Strawberry Glass and White Balsamic Pearls, alongside sweet pastries such as the legendary Modern Strawberry Red Velvet Cake and New York Sundae Choux, all complemented by delectable Scones and a carefully selected bottle of wine – an impeccable indulgence for your discerning palate.
