For lunch, we recommended you to try buffet dim sum at Summer Palace.

“Summer Palace” Cantonese restaurant in Bangkok located on M Floor, InterContinental Bangkok. On weekdays and weekends, they serve an all-you-can-eat dim sum offer, serving over 40 dishes! The dim sum and a la carte menu all were made to order and simply scrumptious.

We sampled:

Siu Mai, steamed prawn dumpling with shrimp roll

Pan-fried bean curd roll with shrimp

Steamed Roasted bbq pork bun

Barbecue pork with honey

For the soup menu we try, sweet corn soup with chicken and Braise shredded abalone with fish maw soup

I love Abalone with fish maw, Stir-fried Hong Kong egg noodles with Barbecue pork, Radish cake stir fry with X.O. sauce.

The delectable food at Fireplace Grill and bar was incredible; every dish is distinctive and memorable.

Start with Amuse Bouche (Chef’s Complimentary dish; the dish changes daily)

We enjoyed the Chef's creation a “24 hours slow-cooked short ribs with red wine sauce and mashed potato.” Succulent!

Our 2 dishes of appetizers we order escargot serve along with potato puree garlic butter sauce 950++ thb

and another dish we go with pan-roasted foie gras serve with rocket salad and raspberry reduction 950++ thb

We tried the Maine Lobster bisque soup 480++thb and Mushroom soup 420++ thb

Our main dishes North Atlantic Lobsters (Maine USA.) 2,100++ thb The Lobster is sweet by itself it’s totally divine.

Toyosu Market sea bass (Tokyo Japan) 1,600 ++ thb

both for the Sea grill selection, we love the Lemon butter and Garlic butter sauce perfection to eat with Sea bass & Lobster!

Another amazing dish you’ve shouldn’t miss is BEEF; imported beef from Queensland Australia.

“Stockyard Beef Tenderloin gold 200 days” 1,900++ thb The dainty Beef is tender and juicy cooked perfectly well. The perfect combination serves along with baby carrot and peppercorn sauce

We enjoyed seeing the Chef prepare cooking in the open kitchen with charcoal over an open flame.

We had a wonderful time, as usual. The wine was perfect with our beef and the food here is simply spectacular. We fell in love with this silky and balanced red wine “Domain d'Enfants L’Enfant perdu, Southwest France 2015”
