Spice Market at Anantara Siam Bangkok Hotel Welcomes Bold New Thai Chef and Unveils Irresistible Signature Dishes

Bangkok Hotels Food and Beverage Promotions: A New Culinary Chapter at a Bangkok Icon

The legendary Spice Market at Anantara Siam Bangkok Hotel—long hailed as one of the most authentic Thai dining destinations in Bangkok—ushers in a bold new chapter with the arrival of Executive Chef Aquin Pitcharat, affectionately known as Chef Pun. For over three decades, the restaurant has charmed global guests with refined Thai flavors nestled in the heart of Ratchaprasong. Now, with Chef Pun at the helm, the beloved venue is entering an exciting new era defined by bold creativity and contemporary flair.

Bringing with him a passion for reimagining Thai cuisine while honoring its roots, Chef Pun blends premium imported ingredients with locally sourced produce from various Thai regions to craft standout dishes. This Bangkok Hotels Food and Beverage Promotions news report highlights his expertly curated 8-dish tasting menu, designed to deliver a culinary journey across the country’s four regions while catering to both local gourmands and international epicures.

A Feast for the Senses with Regional Elegance

Among the must-try highlights: a refreshing pomelo salad with Hokkaido scallops and a citrusy twist from ma-peed oranges, served elegantly on betel leaves. Equally tantalizing is the grilled chicken panang, made using Chef Pun’s secret curry paste recipe, and a decadent crab omelet drizzled with rich crab fat sauce. Seafood lovers will be captivated by the sea bass tom klong, paired ingeniously with crispy fried stingray, and the steamed sea bass sourced from the mineral-rich waters of Chachoengsao. Rounding out the seafood experience are the stir-fried tiger prawns with chili and salt.

Chef Pun’s expertise in Northern and Southern Thai cuisine also shines in dishes such as the stir-fried crab meat with chili and Ranong-sourced stink beans—crisp, sweet, and aromatic—and a fiery Northern-style larb featuring juicy Australian Wagyu Angus beef.

Desserts That Tell a Story

Spice Market’s dessert offerings are as inventive as the savory dishes. Guests can enjoy a grilled cake inspired by classic Thai sweets, served warm on a charcoal stove and topped with roasted sesame and coconut milk. Another standout is Khanom Wong—a rare treat resembling fried donuts, filled with a delightful mix of Kluai Nam Wa and Kluai Hom bananas and cashews, then topped with luscious palm sugar and coconut sauce.
