Swelling with
The Flow
In what can only
be referred to as
one of the most
exciting brunch
dining experiences
in the city, get ready
to loosen the belt
buckle and add a
few notches this
festive season…
NIKKI BUSUTTIL
J
ust how exciting can a brunch
or dining experience get? Have a
think, then think again… Before
you’re done reflecting, take yourself down to the Chao Phraya
River, by road, BTS Skytrain or hotel boat
service, and explore the dining universe of
the Millennium Hilton Bangkok. If you can
make it for a Sunday brunch, then you’ll be
all the better for it. Otherwise, the festive
season has plenty more excitement on the
menu, throughout the holidays and into
the New Year.
Sunday Brunch there, though, is a
definite one-of-a-kind, all-encompassing
experience, which is purely about indulgence and extravagance, not to be rushed,
but to be savoured. While this brunch is
advertised as taking place at their Flow
Restaurant, it extends far beyond the confines of an ordinary hotel all-day dining
restaurant buffet. This is, in fact, a finely
crafted and creative food and beverage
journey that sees an amalgamation of all
the fantastic lounging and dining outlets
within the hotel.
Starting at 11am and winding up at
4pm, guests are invited to the ThreeSixty
HOLIDAY TIME’S ONLINE
bar, usually a jazz lounge by night, on the
32nd floor of the hotel, accessed via the
executive lounge reception on the 31st floor.
A spiral staircase allows you to emerge at
a stunning, panoramic vista over the river
and city. The view is inspiring and further
enhanced by the pre-brunch drinks and
nibbles on offer, to set the mood for the
epic binge eating over the course of the
afternoon. There is a selection of cocktails,
mocktails and juices, as well as bite-size
appetizers until midday, when staff then
invite you to make your way, at your leisure,
down to the ground floor to Flow.
Flow is an expansive riverside restaurant, with both indoor and outdoor dining,
which is absolutely sublime for this time
of year – cool breezes and sunshine make
for the perfect bonus. Five display kitchens
span the globe throughout Asia and the
Mediterranean, regularly bringing you a
whole host of taste and flavour sensations.
On any other given day, breakfast buffets
are just 770Baht net, lunches 1,000Baht net
and dinners are at 1,800Baht net, with children from 6 to 12 years old always dining
at half price.
For Sunday brunch, the array is astounding (2,200Baht net + optional 1,000Baht net
freeflow wine and prosecco package per
person). From noon until 3pm, guests can
feast on the main buffet in Flow, while the
dessert room remains open the entire time
until 4pm, along with coffees, teas and hot
chocolate bombs, culminating in a swelling
waistline that may well need a few extra
notches on the belt buckle; cleverly punch
them at home, prior to brunch. In a true
testament to first world problems, the
dilemma here is where to start first…

Swelling with the Flow
Since everyone knows that there is always
room for dessert, this marginally narrows
down the options for the moment, but
only very slightly. The food stations are
numerous, representing all of the hotels
restaurants. Thai specialties are from Maya
restaurant; succulent crustaceans of surf
and juicy cuts of turf are from Prime Steakhouse; fruit juices and smoothies come
from The Beach; Blood Mary’s are courtesy
of ThreeSixty; sophisticated Chinese fare is
from Yuan restaurant; fresh and fried Japanese, tandoor oven and curried Indian,
plus international cuisine are all at home in
Flow, as well as the multitudinous varieties
in the Cheese Room and well-stocked Wine
Cellar; while house-made desserts and
confectionary are deliciously and temptingly oozing from The Lantern.
A jaw-dropping and seemingly endless
foray into food, each station is equipped
with chefs, who explain their dishes and
perform their craft with professionalism
and flair, before your eyes. The buffet is
alive with action and none of the dishes
sit for long before they are snapped up and
refilled, in a slight of hand. Special mention needs to be made of the beef tartar,
cold cuts and Caesar salad action station,
as well as the splendid seafood station, as
fresh oysters are shucked and king crabs
are cracked, while you spoon caviar and
select prawns or mussels for your overflowing plate, in an epicurean frenzy.
Few words, than oo’s and ah’s, are
exchanged back at your table, as you chow
down and hope beyond hope that you will,
indeed, still have room for dessert. The
saving grace comes in the assurance, that
this is one long Sunday brunch and there
will be time to breathe and digest, since
it is so very tricky to resist trying a little of
everything. Chocolates, chocolate shards
and jellies, fresh waffles and ice cream teppanyaki, freshly baked chocolate soufflés,
cakes, pies, winter cookies and a secret
recipe apple ‘tarte tatin’ are just a delightful, mouthwatering overview of some of the
brilliant, awaiting sweet treats.
Don’t miss the next ultra-festive Sunday
brunch on 28th December (2,500Baht net)
and be sure to check out the Millennium
Hilton Bangkok festive programme 2014,
for all of the New Year celebration menus
and buffets of equal culinary delights and
added opulence, along with the corresponding prices. Make your booking in
advance, as places are bound to fill up fast.
Each of the outlets has special New Year’s
Eve packages for food and/or beverages. At
Flow, the New Year’s Eve buffet is 6,500Baht
net, with an optional drinks package for
freeflow wines and spirits at 2,100Baht net.
The riverside feast here, with a view of the
fireworks is extended from 7pm to 1am.
The ThreeSixty New Year’s Eve 32nd-floor
panorama experience packages start from
7,000Baht net. If you are not yet ready to
burst and dying to get back to the gym,
the New Year’s Day lunch buffet at Flow is
1,800Baht net and dinner will be 2,500Baht
net – New Year’s resolutions can wait!

The Thrill of the Grill
With its culinary compass pointed due-west, the InterContinental Bangkok’s
Fireplace Grill offers exquisite steakhouse-inspired surf ’n’ turf favourites
along with an unforgettable dining experience
NEW YEAR FESTIVITIES
W
hile embracing all the
important traditions, Plaza
Athénée Bangkok, a Royal
Méridien, brings fresh vitality and
originality to the coming New Year
celebrations with indulgent cuisine,
free-flow drinks, and sophisticated
entertainment culminating in a memorable countdown to 2015.
CHRIS LOMBARDI
T
hough no actual glowing
embers or flaming yuletide
logs are in evidence upon
entering the Fireplace Grill at
the InterContinental Bangkok
on Phloen Chit Rd., there is an undeniable
warmth that pervades the simple, uncluttered and elegantly understated dining
room. Softly earth toned fabrics and natural wood surfaces play off gleaming steel
countertops, grills and copper cooking pots
housed neatly within the centrally placed,
open-plan cooking plaza. Executive Chef Leslie Stronach, whose
decades under the toque has spanned no
less than six continents, upholds the institution-class restaurant’s nearly 50-year legacy
of culinary excellence with both creative
flair and reverence for tradition. His menu
strikes a perfect balance of rich, hearty
succulence and health-conscious garden
freshness that is satisfying in the extreme.
Apropos the festive season, our meal
opened with that holiday favourite, Roast
Turkey with Cranberry Sauce and Stuffing.
The duo of uniformly thick, centre-sliced
breasts were neatly tiered atop a bed of
herbed mixed fowl “Grandma’s” style
stuffing. Even the much-maligned Brussels Sprout put in a tender-textured, buttery-braised appearance alongside roasted
Kipfler potatoes imported from France, while
a pair of miniature gravy boats decanted an
irresistible Shallot Crème Bread Sauce and
refreshingly light Giblet Jus.
Next to arrive was the Pan roasted Scallop and Alaskan King Crab Thermidor with
Emmenthal and Parmesan Hollandaise.
The generously sized scallop was lightly
browned and offered a firm bite, while the
crab’s gratinated cheese topping provided
a creamy rich, earthy tasting accompaniment. Chef Leslie’s knack for creating
innovative garnishes with a life of their own
was showcased in this dish with the inclusion of a coil of egg- and flour-less Prawn
Udon noodle made entirely of emulsified
prawn, along with a delightful and aptly
named Potato “Confetti” consisting of
crispy, impossibly miniscule and perfectly
diced cubes of those premium imported
Kipler spuds.
It was shellfish déjà vu time as a plate Pan
Fried Scallops and Foie Gras Nuggets with
XO Jus was presented. As with the previous dish, the scallops were gently browned
outside, with a tender but firm bite. And
carving the Foie Gras into small “nuggets”
is a smart way to serve the goose liver delicacy: The crunchily-seared outer skin was
a nice prelude to the soft, smooth, pâté-like
consistency of the meat within, allowing
these bite sized charms to be enjoyed in
small, texturally diametric nibbles that are
intensely flavourful without being overpowering. The farm-fresh pea tendril garnish
(including the pods and seeds) provided a
leafy, verdant appearance and were a pleasantly crispy complement to the dish’s more
densely-textured elements.
FABULOUS
NEW YEAR’S EVE + DAY
THE RAIN TREE CAFÉ, International Buffet
CELEBRATE GLORIOUSLY
An uncompromisingly gourmet
dinner buffet unfolds to the delight

especially splendid but so are the carvings, interactive stations, free-flowing wines and specially created dessert buffet.
31 December
New Year’s Eve Gala Buffet 18:00

THB 3,990 net / person including

The tantalising procession of seafood
continued with a Pan Roasted Snow Fish
with Scallop Sausage, served on a gorgeous
four sided dinner plate. The firm textured,
creamy-white block of snow fish was moist
and flavourful, easily separating into succulent layers at the slightest touch of the fork,
while the scallop sausage offered a smooth
texture and subtle, unassuming taste.
We pointed out earlier Chef Leslie’s
penchant for above-standard dinner plate
ambience, and here he pulls out all the
stops by creating a masterfully conceived
and executed garnishing that was as
much of a delight to behold as it was to
consume. To enhance his Snow Fish, the
Scotland-born kitchen Meister fashioned
a daring Indo-Italian hybrid in the form of
a tongue dazzling Saffron infused Vegetable Minestrone sauce that would be perfectly at home served in Delhi or Rome.
Also populating the plate were a suite of
miniature vegetables, artfully arranged in
such a way as to suggest a tiny haute cuisine
village of potato cube houses, needle-like
carrot tip (imported from France) church
steeples, broccoli flower shrubberies and
pearl-sized, caviar tomato (imported from
Holland) civic artworks.
But the evening’s highlight was yet to
come—the Duet of Tajima Wagyu
Grilled Sirloin (Marbling: 7+) and
24-hour Braised Short Rib (Marbling: 6+)
with Red Wine Jus amply demonstrated
that the Fireplace Grill’s specialised grilling
techniques do proper justice to these premium Australian-grown cuts of beef. The
hearty, exceedingly tender slice of short
rib, presented on a bed of silky smooth
garlic’d potato purée, possessed a flavour
born of pampered, carefully-fed livestock.
A steak knife would have been overkill,
as the expertly cooked beef surrendered
without a fight to the blunt edge of our fork.
The short rib was topped with five strips of
Tajima Wagyu Sirloin, cooked to medium
rare, char-crusted perfection.
A garnish of milk-dipped and breaded
onion rings, fondant baby carrot and seasoned pea pods completed the dish.
The Fireplace Grill is open for dinner
from 18:30 to 22:30 hours, seven days
a week.

GARY BOYLE
amed explorer Sir Edmund
Hillary racked up a fair amount
of frequent flyer miles in his life
of adventuring. He was the first
man to stand atop Mount Everest, and the first to score the hat-trick of
doing Everest and both the North and South
Poles. His 1953 expedition to conquer the
world’s highest mountain was done wearing just a thin cotton and nylon jacket and
carrying a scant 20 kilograms of supplies.
Judging by the arrivals hall at its airport,
the average visitor to Chiang Mai is better
prepared than Hillary. These brave weekend adventurers steel themselves against
the cold with heavy jackets and an array
of wooly hats as they drag their allowance-busting amounts of luggage out to
the taxi stand. These scenes suggest the
plane has landed inside the Arctic Circle,
rather than a city a couple of degrees colder
than the one they just left.
Sir Hillary was also a pioneer of another
adventure activity. On reaching the Everest summit, Hillary and his fellow climber
Tenzing Norgay paused to take a couple
of photos, thereby inventing the selfie.
Tragically, Hillary failed to upload them
to Facebook or Instagram, and died never
knowing how many likes he would have got.
Spoiler: it’s not that cold in Chiang Mai.
The daytime sunshine still tries to melt the
tarmac but the mornings and evenings are
very pleasant indeed. A scarf or sweater is
a good idea for your nightly stroll from the
Night Bazaar to the luxury of the Shangri-La
Hotel Chiang Mai.
While the nearby night bazaar is still a
tourist magnet, it pays to explore the city
before retiring to the luxury of your room.
Two wheels are a better idea than four, so
you can zip along the lanes of the old city
or ride the road that zigzags up the mountain to Wat Phra That Doi Suthep. These
are great ideas, and that’s why every other
tourist will be doing it the same day that you
are. Luckily, the new generation of Chiang
Mai citizens have decided to transform
the city into their own hip and laid back
town filled with lazy alternatives to a hard
day’s tourism.
If Chiang Mai didn’t invent lazing around
in coffeeshops and taking selfies then it certainly leads the field. It seems that every soi
has a little indie barista perfecting their latte
art, and customers photographing their
coffee rather than drinking it. Ristr8to in
Nimmanhaemin is packed throughout
the day, but a good tip is to head through
the old Wat Umong neighbourhood to a
new place opposite Wat Rampeung. Baan
Kang Wat is a cool collection of coffee, food,
and artsy little shops in a well-designed
area with super mountain views. Later in
the day Think Park, on the corner of Nimmanhaemin and Huay Kaew roads, boasts
a crafty chunk of artisanal shops, bars and
burger vans.
Or you could just laze around your
resort. Younger sister to its famed Bangkok sibling, the northern Shangri-La Hotel
has that Lanna-luxe style, from the ochre
and reds of the lobby to the greenery of
the expansive gardens. The hotel has four
dining options, such as the Chinese cuisine
of Shang Garden whose bar has a sensuous
den-like feel, or the poolside treats of Dhala.
Their Lobby Lounge is the ideal spot for
an afternoon tea or for Dad to sneak away
to watch the Premiere League games in
the evening.
The hotel’s big draw this season, however, is the buffet at its Kad Kafé. This grand
teak-lined space hosts what it calls “culinary
theatre” daily, but Friday is when the seafood appears in abundance. You can kick off
your meal with a seafood chowder, but the
more intrepid diners will head for the base
camp of the central ice mountain.
The summit of ice rises from its base of
mussels and through the foothills of giant
prawns. Visible at the peak is an avalanche
of crabs which can be airlifted directly
to your plate or resuscitated on the outdoor barbecue.
There’s a sushi and sashimi station but if
you’re feeling the winter cold you can stand
by the authentic pizza oven and warm your
bones while the chef cooks their signature
pizza. The Norwegian Pizza, or Pizza Normandie, is delicious, its smoked salmon flavoured with capers and red onion sitting on
a bed of crème fraîche. Or, when in Rome,
NEW YEAR’S DAY (THUR 1 JAN)
TABLES GRILL invites yout start 2015
by delighting your taste bud with a New
Year Brunch Buffet including wide range
try the local flavours of the Tom Yum pizza.
There are plenty of other local options at
the Asian Delight corner, as well as pastas
and dishes like salmon wrapped in filo and
dill cream. But, like any good buffet, there’s
a problem.
Every visit to fill your savoury plate
involves passing the dessert station. How
long can you continue with the mains when
these treats are so enticing? The signature
dessert is a salaciously sweet tiramisu,
but there’s also Drambuie-soaked crêpe
suzettes and chunks of bread and butter
pudding. For the health-conscious or funaverse there are seasonal fruits, but I was
too busy loading up on sugar to pay them
any attention.
Should you be in Chiang Mai over the
new year (and you should, it’s the perfect
time to visit) the Shangri-La is hosting a
Gatsby-themed countdown shindig by the
pool. What better what to toast your 2014
adventures and plan your 2015 expeditions.

BarSu introduces
‘DID – Dine in the Dark’
An illuminating culinary journey into the world of the visually impaired
S
heraton Grande Sukhumvit, A
Luxury Collection Hotel, Bangkok is proud to be the first 5-star
hotel in Thailand to introduce the
Dine in the Dark concept. Held
within the hotel’s chic gastro lounge, BarSu
the unique culinary concept invites guests
to experience their dinner in total darkness.
Dine in the Dark or DID is an extraordinary culinary experience designed to
awaken your senses. Pioneered in Zurich
in 1999 by a Swiss socialite and trendsetter,
who happened to be blind, DID brought
together his sighted friends for cocktails and social gatherings, and created a
whole new set of sensations and experiences based on the combination of total
darkness, social interaction, dining and
drinking. By 1999 the growing popularity
of the concept expanded into a fine dining
restaurant and social club. Since then, DID
has spread to Germany, Paris, London, and
now Bangkok.
At DID, diners can take their dining
experience to a whole new level as visually
impaired guides lead them on a remarkable journey of sensory awareness in the
dark. Challenging, thought provoking
and fun, DID allows diners to get in touch
with all of their senses – except one. Their
remaining senses are enhanced. Conversation becomes more intimate and immediate. Sensations are stimulated, sounds
amplified, their imagination is increased
and they gain an understanding of their
hosts’ lives.
Upon arrival at BarSu, guests are welcomed at the chic and stylish gastro lounge
where their guide for the evening provides a
brief introduction to the extraordinary DID
concept before offering a choice of four
delightful 4-course set menus including
Asian, western, vegetarian, and a special
surprise option. Guests are invited to surrender any luminous watches and mobile
phones, then the visually impaired guides
leads them to the private dining room and
into total darkness.
Once seated, it is time to adjust to the
new environment. Along with fellow diners
guests must carefully begin to explore the
table in front of them; the cutlery and
plates, the position of the glasses. In the
pitch-black darkness, they are challenged
to draw and retain a mental picture of the
dining table. At first there is a feeling of
complete disorientation, then excitement
and laughter with friends. When the first
dish is carefully served by a team of visually
impaired guides, the day-to-day difficulties
of their world suddenly becomes apparent.
Finding the food is quite literally a stab in
the dark. Exploring the food on the plate is a
challenge that stimulates conversation and
competition between friends. The questions, surprises and laughter flow. Without
vision, taste sensations become confused
and diners may even have to guess what
they are eating. The incredible experience
amplifies the senses as guests are forced
to rely completely on smell, taste, touch
and sound.
After a memorable dinner, guests are
led back into BarSu where they will be presented with dishes from their chosen menu.
It’s often said that we eat as much with
our eyes as we do by taste. DID takes diners
out of their comfort zone but rewards them
with an unforgettable experience and true
insight into the world of the blind.
DID is a unique experience for groups
of friends and colleagues. Held in a private
dining room at BarSu, dining is limited to
20 – 24 guests at each sitting.
Bt1,400++ per person for food only. For
each diner, the hotel will donate Baht 50 to
The Foundation for the Blind in Thailand.
Switch off the lights and turn on your
senses at Dining in the Dark. Available from
19:00 hrs, Tuesday – Saturday (last orders
21:30 hrs).
Dine in the Dark is located at BarSu,
on the ground floor of Sheraton Grande
Sukhumvit in the heart of Bangkok’s lively
downtown district. Just meters from the
Asoke BTS SkyTrain and Sukhumvit MRT
subway stations, it’s a breeze to get to. It’s a dog’s life
We love dogs! The more we learn how to rear
and regulate our four-legged friends, the happier we are to have them around. And that’s
why we were inspired to open Bangkok Doggy
Hotel.
We understand and love dogs just as much
as you do. We enjoy playing with them. And
we know that your loyal canine needs oneon-one attention.
And that is what they will always get at Bangkok Doggy Hotel because we will always provide the personal care he or she deserves and
expects. Which means we will be keeping them
amused with plenty of activities. Plus providing
everything your dog needs to feel right at home
in our friendly, well maintained facility.
So now you can take that nice long holiday
you’ve been yearning for with complete peace
of mind that your dog is also being pampered
and having a nice stay at Bangkok Doggy Hotel.
More specifically, our services include
Superior Care (Baht 450/night) and VIP Care
(Baht 650/night). Puppies and old dogs may
need Super Extra Care, charged at an additional Baht 250/night. We also provide 10-night
dog training camps at Baht 17,500.

raditional watchmaking shouldn’t mean there
isn’t room for innovation. Dedicated to developing quality, cutting-edge timepieces, Oris are
delighted to present the new Artelier Jumping Hour,
which adopts a digital hour aperture design.
The newest addition to Oris’ Artelier collection, the
new Artelier Jumping Hour showcases an unusual way
of telling the time. Abandoning the traditional central
hour hand, Oris’latest Artelier is the first in the Oris family
to reveal its digital hour through a jumping disk that
changes instantaneously every sixty minutes.
This fine watchmaking feature results in a face that is like no other in the Oris collection, with only two
intersecting counters to track the minutes and seconds. Housed atop a silver guilloche dial with polished Nickel
indices and polished Nickel hand. A dark brown leather strap with croco pattern and a stainless steel folding
clasp is a sophisticated finish.
An innovative addition to the Oris collection and a remarkable adaption of the Artelier design, the new Oris Artelier Jumping Hour is a must have timepiece.
