Thailand Dinner

Bailliage of Bangkok Rattanakosin, Thailand
Bangkok, March 16, 2023

Exploring the culinary artistry of Lebanon
" our very own Maître Rôtisseur Hassan Farran is one of those artists able to show us the brilliance of the cuisine of his homeland "

From the inception of our young Bailliage we wanted to shine a light on the myriad of fine cuisines that make up the tapestry that is Bangkok’s dining scene. One of the finest is surely Lebanese, the “jewel of the Eastern Mediterranean”, studded with bright, punchy flavours coaxed from ingredients with first-class cooking techniques.

Luckily for us, our very own Maître Rôtisseur Hassan Farran is one of those artists able to show us the brilliance of the cuisine of his homeland. What followed was a veritable parade showcasing the dishes of Lebanon’s capital Beirut, the “Cedar City”.
