Seasonal celebration at the Park Hyatt Hotel
" The highlight of the menu was the Beef Wellington and its glossy truffle sauce "
Christmas came early in Bangkok for Chaîne members who managed to book a seat at this festive holiday dinner at the Park Hyatt Hotel.
On arrival guests were escorted to a sealed-off section of the hotel, where glasses of chilled Champagne Billecart-Salmon Brut Reserve (served from magnums) awaited alongside an oyster bar, a raclette station, assorted canapes, and dollops of lamb tartare. The festive mood was further enhanced with offerings of roasted chestnuts and glühwein despite the balmy weather.
The seated portion of the evening promised even more surprises, including a seafood cocktail liberally seasoned with a Marie Rose sauce and a crystal-clear pheasant consommé packed with flavour.
