From the Swiss Alps to the Andaman Sea

Phuket, Thailand, September 24, 2022 / TRAVELINDEX / On 25th and 26th of October, L’Arôme by the Sea will join forces with the one-Michelin-starred restaurant, IGNIV Bangkok to create two memorable dinners showcasing the best of each restaurant.

IGNIV means ‘nest’ in Romansh, the mother tongue of the Swiss three-Michelin-starred Chef Andreas Caminada. This translation inspires a food sharing concept which offers guests a unique culinary experience, where they are not only enjoying a meal, but truly connecting with one another.

IGNIVs head chef David Hartwig and L’Arôme by the Sea’s head chef Yannick Hollenstein are both from Switzerland and will use this connection as inspiration for this event.

Themed as “From the Swiss Alps to the Andaman Sea“, we will bring you a culinary journey with local products from the mountains of the north and the sea from the south of Thailand. Combined with specialties and techniques from the Swiss Alps, the menu will provide a truly exciting experience.

The 9 courses menu is priced at 4500 THB with an optional wine pairing at 3500 THB
* Price is subject to 10% service charge and 7% government tax

The collaboration menu will include the most creative presentations of seafood such as langoustine tartlets and fresh Phuket lobsters. Dishes such as the beeswax aged Muscovy duck served with swiss pear and yellow chanterelle mushrooms, both prized goods in their respective native regions.
