Le Du Kaan Raises Thai Gastronomy to Exciting New Heights with Spectacular Rooftop Restaurant
Bangkok, Thailand, October 3, 2024 / TRAVELINDEX / Le Du Kaan, Bangkok’s first rooftop Thai restaurant, has opened its doors in the heart of this vibrant capital city. This marks the exciting new culinary venture from the highly acclaimed, Michelin-starred Chef Thitid “Ton” Tassanakajohn, who elevates Thai cuisine with local, seasonal ingredients and a theatrical storytelling narrative.
Perched on the 56th floor of The Empire, this dramatic dining destination raises the bar for gastronomy in Bangkok by blending world-class Thai cuisine with unparalleled city views. In this spectacular top floor setting, discerning diners will be able to savor Chef Ton’s unique culinary style, which takes the kingdom’s fresh, natural produce and treats it with the utmost care, skill and precision to craft delectable and highly artistic dishes.
One of Asia’s brightest culinary stars, Chef Ton is the only chef to have two entries on this year’s “Asia’s 50 Best Restaurants” list: Nusara, which achieved third place on this prestigious list, and Le Du, which was recently honored with a Michelin star.
Le Du Kaan derives from the Thai words meaning “seasons”, and each dish is crafted using authentic ingredients, sustainably sourced directly from farms and fishing communities in the four main regions of Thailand: North, Northeast, Central, and South. A true celebration of Thai culture, these creative menus reimagine the kingdom’s time-honored culinary traditions for the 21st Century and transport every diner on a multi-sensory journey. Chef Ton is also a certified sommelier, and the restaurant presents a curated wine list of fine and rare vintages from around the world.
Stepping onto the 56th floor of the landmark The Empire, guests will be immersed in a world of refined sophistication and warm, heartfelt Thai hospitality. From the elegant indoor restaurant, visitors can embark on a journey to the expansive 835-square meter outdoor terrace, which is blessed with Bangkok’s warm breeze and breathtaking views of the city and Chao Phraya River.
The alfresco rooftop bar is a stunning setting to savor innovative, highly Instagrammable cocktails and mocktails. Expertly crafted by talented mixologists, these Thai-inspired creations also capture the essence of the country’s four diverse regions with tropical fruit and herbs.
So, whether guests are seeking a stylish setting for lunch with family and colleagues, a cherished evening meal with loved ones, a special celebration, or an uplifting evening of sunset cocktails and social drinks with friends, Le Du Kaan will elevate every epicurean occasion in the Thai capital.
“One of the stars of Asia’s restaurant scene, Chef Ton has already built an outstanding reputation for gastronomic innovation and excellence. His acclaimed restaurants in Bangkok are established among the finest places to dine. Now, he is raising the bar even higher with Bangkok’s first rooftop Thai restaurant. Blending the bounty of local and seasonal produce with unparalleled views of Bangkok’s skyline, Le Du Kaan showcases Thailand’s rich culture – past, present and future,” said Simon Bell, cluster general manager.
Directly accessible via Chong Nonsi BTS skytrain station, Le Du Kaan is open for dinner (17.00 – 22.30 hrs.). The rooftop bar (17.00 – 01.00 hrs.) is the perfect place to chill out and socialize in style, from sunset until the early hours.
