Resembling a Thai kitchen, Open Kitchen embraces regional styles like cooking on the floor, preparing food in bamboo joints, pounding, simmering and scenting. Discover shared plates, food trays and Thai-style seating, all presented as a rich cultural dining experience.
Designed by Boonserm Premthada, Open Kitchen gives a second life to 30-year-old hardwood timber reclaimed from a nearby tobacco factory. It opens on all four sides to welcome visitors with open arms to stop by for a cultural food encounter and humble dining experience.
