This was definitely an experience well worth the price. We are vegetarian and they set up a vegetarian menu for us that exceeded all of our expectations. Mind you that my husband mentioned it was our honeymoon and they congratulated us on the menu.
The staff was friendly, welcoming, and the service was on point. You see how they all work as a team to creat this perfect experience and make it seem so easy and seamless when it’s actually very very hard to accomplish. Every single detail of the experience is perfect, the presentation, the food, the way they place the dishes at the exact same time on the table, the way they anticipate your needs so you never really need to ask for anything, etc.
The chef comes out to explain most of the dishes and asks for feedback on the food afterwards, she does this with every table, manages somehow to look relaxed and makes conversation, while she has a full house, and is obviously under tons of stress behinds the scenes to make sure everything comes out perfect.
The staff is A++ and trained to explain all of the dishes as well, this takes tons of preparation so I was definitely impressed.
This experience is about trying new things, new flavors, and experiencing dishes you will not have anywhere else. You may love some flavors more than others but every single dish was unique and a piece of art and an explosion of amazing flavors and tastes. My personal favorite was the Durian and the eggplant and the second course
My only advice is to make sure that you arrive really hungry so don’t eat a lot during the day and avoid late lunch because it is a TON of food. We weren’t able to finish the main course and the last courses even though they were great and even though we ate way past our limit, this was mostly because we had a late lunch.
Also, we went on our first night in Bangkok after arriving late the night before from a long flight, jet lagged hit us halfway through dinner and it was a struggle to stay focused and awake. It’s such a nice experience that we would have enjoyed it even more if we had waited to do it on another night or for lunch the following day.
