From Harbor Roots to Refined Dining
The essence of typhoon shelter cooking lies in its signature approach—high-heat wok frying combined with generous amounts of crispy garlic, chilli, and fermented black bean sauce. This Bangkok Hotels Food Promotions news report highlights how Summer Palace elevates the concept into a refined and theatrical dining experience. While preserving authenticity, the chefs have enhanced the dish with premium ingredients and meticulous preparation, ensuring each bite delivers a balance of flavor, texture, and aroma.
A Showstopping Lobster Creation
At the heart of this seasonal offering is a striking three-kilogram “mountain” of premium Boston lobster. Each lobster is expertly wok-fried to achieve a golden, fragrant finish before being coated in layers of garlic, chilli, and savoury black bean sauce. The dish delivers a compelling contrast between the lobster’s natural sweetness and the bold seasoning, with a gentle heat that lingers without overpowering. Designed as a shared centerpiece, it caters perfectly to family gatherings, celebratory meals, and corporate dining occasions, offering both visual drama and culinary satisfaction.
Availability and Experience
The Typhoon Shelter Lobster Mountain is available at Summer Palace from 1 April to 30 June 2026, served during lunch and dinner hours. Located on the mezzanine level of the InterContinental Bangkok, the restaurant provides an elegant setting that complements the grandeur of the dish.

A Bold Culinary Statement
The introduction of this dish reflects a growing trend among Bangkok’s luxury hotels to create immersive and visually striking dining experiences. By combining heritage techniques with modern presentation, Summer Palace successfully transforms a traditional seafood preparation into a memorable spectacle. The Typhoon Shelter Lobster Mountain is poised to capture attention not only for its scale but also for its ability to bring authentic Hong Kong flavors into a contemporary Bangkok setting.
