What's On The Menu, Conrad?
Epicure Singapore|February - March 2023
If your idea of a vacation means a breezy trip to neighbouring Thailand, consider a Conrad hotel stay that checks all the right boxes - convenient location, plentiful food options, and beautifully furnished rooms.

What's On The Menu, Conrad?

CONRAD BANGKOK

From deluxe rooms to the presidential suite (391 in total), the hotel's interiors are the brainchild of Ray Chuang, of Cheng Chung Design. Gold and brushed-bronze elements fill the Executive King Room, which is furnished with traditional Thai decor and natural wood accents. State-of-the-art technology are aplenty, only with thoughtful touches in the form of an intelligent climate control system, calibrated lights and digital key access.

While Conrad Bangkok's prime location made it easy for me to duck out for a Michelin-starred meal, staying in was a favourable option as I could avoid the city's notorious traffic.

The Executive Lounge is where guests converge for breakfast - it is open to Diamond Hilton Honors members as well as those who stay in Executive Rooms. The international spread includes dim sum, pancakes, fried rice and noodles as well as a salad bar, among others. Surplus of untouched food from the daily buffet is donated to Scholars of Sustenance, a food rescue foundation in Thailand which benefits low-income families and refugees.

In the afternoon, I made my way to KiSara. Here, relish the interior that makes you feel like you are in a faraway ryokan, because bamboo screens, washi papers and tatami mats drape this space. At its helm is chef Naohisa Yamada who transforms the freshest ingredients into kaiseki sets. Standouts from this season's menu include the beef tataki, botan shrimp sashimi, and the Chirashi bowl with striped horse mackerel, conger eel and salmon roe.
