Sumptuous Treats at

Full Moon Char Grill Char-grill aficionados are heading to Bophut and the Anantara Bophut Koh Samui Resort & Spa’s Full Moon Char Grill, a prime one spot when it comes to excellent tastes, affordability and presentation. Diners are well-looked after by knowledgeable and helpful staff, while the chef and his team are well-known for their amazing dishes. The concept’s simple: a variety of quality meats, along with the choice of sauces and side dishes, and all served in the chic surroundings of the restaurant.

The restaurant’s focus is on French-Mediterranean cuisine and is thoroughly international

Executive chef Christoph Lindner has just put together a new menu featuring beef from three different sources. From Australia he’s chosen Black Angus tenderloin and strip loin, from the US, pure Black Angus rib eye and New York strip and from Japan, Wagyu beef that comes from the Miyazaki prefecture – one of the country’s most famous and succulent varieties. Christoph made his choice based on three criteria: best meat cuts, their origin and the breed itself. For seafood, the diners are again spoiled for both choice and quality. There’s Phuket lobster, sea bass, squid, along with sustainably-farmed turbot from France and Spain and Kingfish from Australia.

The restaurant also arranges special evenings, usually every month, where three notable chefs put on a 6-course wine dinner featuring top quality products. The next will be in June. It’s a chance to see exactly what a trio of chefs can do – and judging by the bookings they’ve received for past events, it’ll be extremely popular.

The restaurant’s focus is on FrenchMediterranean cuisine and is thoroughly international. The setting’s superb and naturally there’s a full wine list to go with the food. It’s always a treat to dine at Full Moon – the restaurant scores full marks for excellence on all fronts.

PEPPINA PIZZA TRULY NAPOLITANO PIZZA “Napolitan style pizza is known as the best pizza in the world” Is there anything that says Italy more than pizza? Biting into a right out of the oven pizza is just heaven! While you’ll find excellent pizza all over Italy, there’s one place that’s absolutely the top – Naples. This is where pizza was born and where it’s still king.

Pizza dates back to 18th century Naples, when it was a garnished flat bread sold by roaming vendors to the poor in the streets. The biggest step towards its current popularity was the acceptance of tomatoes as a pizza topping by Neapolitans. The story is that pizza was endorsed by Queen Margherita in 1889, when baker Raffaele Esposito was summoned to bake for her and created Pizza Margherita – tomato, mozzarella cheese and basil – the color of the Italian Flag.

Today; Peppina continues that rich tradition of perfect pizza making with an old-world tiled oven, lots of attention to the dough and the keep-it-simple approach to only the most amazing seasonal toppings - terrific handmade cheeses, the best tomatoes, the most savory meats and freshest basil.

Peppina is very serious about Neapolitan-style pizza that there’s an “ideology” on how the pizza dough should be prepared. The secret to our dough is that we know our ingredients; water, sea salt, flour and yeast.

We use a flour which is a highly refined flour that gets a lot of lightness in the crust. If you talk to the Neapolitans, they say that the water from Naples is key. And we don’t use oil. As far as Neapolitan pizza is concerned,

you want to see the blisters come out at high heat, which won’t happen with oil Moreover, At Peppina, the finest locally bred and imported meats are chosen by our own in-house chef to help you get the most from your meat. A good grilled piece of meat is one of life’s simple pleasures, and we have taken pride in our grilling knowledge and skill so that meat lovers can taste the most tender and juicy meats.

At Peppina, none of that escapes our thoughts and we take the highest care and pleasure to achieve the goal posts that meat lovers have come to demand and expect from Peppina.

BEYOND THE SEA Siamese Brasserie

The word ‘Thai cuisine’ is very gruesome. It is definitely a big word. It is a massive variety of dishes representing the achievement from hundreds of year in culture and tradition, a lifetime it would take in order to be a Thai cuisine specialist. How can a single meal be able to show just a slant glimpse of it?

‘A Must Try Authentic Thai Cuisine Restaurant on Koh Samui’ is not only its definition but really is.

The uncompromising tasty menus especially the local ones are truly original in recipe and flavour.

Further tantalizing and well-presented our Thai Tapas menu has more than 10 Tapas to offer our guests from Scallop in Green Curry, Thai Paella or Thai Calamari.our guests from Scallop in Green Curry, Thai Paella or Thai Calamari.

After a hot, long and intense meal of Thai cuisine and if a sweet ending is what you are looking for, we highly recommend you Mellow Mango with Sticky Rice which is one of ShaSa’s signature dish. It becomes a must for Samui travelers to check in at BEYOND THE SEA with its signature dishes as the missions checking point.

No disrespect to Bangkok but it seems to be impossible for any city views to beat ShaSa’s glorious panoramic sea view. Under Samui blue sky, moderndesigned BEYOND THE SEA is located on Leam Set which is known to be the

most peaceful, and the best preserved beach in Samui.

HEAD FOR THE HEIGHTS Jahn at the Conrad Koh Samui

Before the signs went up, people couldn’t find the Conrad; it’s on a remarkably deserted road that winds up onto one of the most beautiful and secluded spots in Samui, a cliff-top overlooking the southern stretch of sea all the way to the mainland. But you don’t need to be a guest to enjoy the Conrad’s fine-dining restaurant, Jahn.

Its glass walls showcase the sea outside, with perhaps one of the best views of the Five Islands a steep drop below. Once you’ve feasted your eyes on the outside world, you’ll appreciate the discreet dining room, utterly contemporary but with architectural notes that harken back to the nation’s exotic past, notably the gold-inlay teak columns that anchor Jahn – it seems to float above the sea, far below.

Opening hours: 6pm – 10pm daily

Reservations: 077 915 888 or send email to conrad_koh_samui@conradhotels.com

The menu focuses on contemporary takes of traditional Thai dishes. The presentation will make you want to bring out your camera – the food beautifully, artistically arranged – and, yes, it tastes every bit as good as it looks.

You’ll find a tempting array of much-loved dishes: papaya salad, tom yum goong – made teapot style here – or a dessert of coconut crème brulée, made from the island’s own fresh coconuts. For main courses try the massaman wagyu – highly tasty sous-vide meat, filled with aromatic penetrating juice – or the equally tempting seabass with its gingery tones.

Almost 3,000 bottles make up the prestigious wine cellar, with both old world and new world

wines on the menu. Jahn is a great place to relax: comfy seats abound and waitstaff are friendly and discerning.

After one of Jahn’s exquisite desserts try a coffee like no other: the best of Arabicas, Black Ivory Elephant Coffee, prepared at your table in a glass cafetiere that’s stepped straight out of a Steampunk novel.

If you can give Jahn 24 hours’ notice, take advantage of the free limousine service (round trip to anywhere on the island) and you’ll enjoy your evening still more. No surprise at all that Jahn has won a Thailand Tatler award for exceptional cuisine and service.

The View from the Top 9GEMS Lounge Restaurant

Easily one of the most sophisticated of Koh Samui’s venues for eating and drinking, 9GEMS Lounge Restaurant appears to be ahead of itself in time. It looks as if it’s stepped right out of an interior design magazine. The chic minimalism of the setting with to-die-for interior design gives 9GEMS both a relaxed and a spacious feel at the same time.

Reservations: 077 256 125

Thanks to its location, perched right on top of a hillside, you’ll experience some of the best views on the island. The whole of Chaweng is spread out before you, making this an ideal place to watch the sun go down while you enjoy a long drink or cocktail.

When it comes to dinner, you can expect the dishes to be every bit as sophisticated as the décor itself. Enjoy contemporary takes on Thai and European cuisine. For starters, try fusion chicken tandoori salad, with the dish subtly nuanced by soy sauce and balsamic vinegar.

Tagliatelle comes with pesto or tomato sauce but you can also try it with Thai-style massaman curry. The bread, by the way, is home made, as is most of what you’ll find at 9GEMS with very little in the way of any outside processing at all.

When it comes to main courses, enjoy a roasted aurora rack of lamb marinated in pesto and tandoori spices or if you’re a fish lover, try grilled tuna with pepper turmeric on

an asparagus bed with egg risotto. Tastes at the restaurant cross effortlessly between east and west, and have been created by the chefowner who grew up in Thailand but lived for years in Europe.

With its excellent food, décor and views, recently-opened 9GEMS Lounge Restaurant is definitely worth heading for.

Opening Hour: Tue-Thu open from 4pm-12am

Fri-Sun open from 4pm-2am,

closed on Monday Open every day in August and from midDecember to the end of April Close for holiday from the 1st to 27th of November Dress Code: Trendy or Smart Casual.

Unique Rural Restaurant It’d be difficult to find a more relaxed setting for dinner than The Farmer Restaurant & Bar. For a start, there’s nothing quite like it; this is the only restaurant on Samui to be situated in a rice field. As such, it’s an amazingly peaceful place to dine. You can hear the cries of cicadas out in the fields, watch buffalo grazing and while evening falls on the hills just to the south.

A Taste of India in Samui Whether you are a fan of Indian cuisine or want to taste it for the first time, Noori India is the perfect place to experience the array of spicy flavors. Koh Samui’s oldest Indian restaurant, Noori India is the culmination of the culinary skills and business acumen of the Indian brothers Di-Di (D. D. Pandey), a recognized name in Indian hospitality industry and Peter (Amit Pandey), a well-known restaurant entreprenuer.

comforts of their home.

D.D is conducting cookery classes to apply his expertise in Indian cuisine by teaching enthusiastic foodies the perfect way to cook Dal, Chicken Tikka Masala and Naan in the

Noori India presents the entire gamut of Indian cuisine – from the delectable vegetarian to mouthwatering non-vegetarian, from tandoori-baked dishes that tickle the taste buds to juicy kebabs. The sizzling Tawa is another dish that rarely fails to evoke awe in the diner. Made with vegetable, chicken, prawn or fish, Tawa is a treat for gustatory, olfactory, auditory and visual senses.

Noori India offers a safe sanctuary for vegan and vegetarian visitors to Samui, as there are fewer options for them at restaurants serving local Thai and European cuisines. Despite this, Noori India’s most popular dishes are Chicken Tikka and Tandoori Chicken from its Tandoor, a clay oven used in India. Other dishes on the do-not-miss list are Lamb Madras, Chicken Bolti, Shami Kebab and Sheek Kabab.

While dining at an Indian restaurant, it is shameful not to try out the varieties of biriyanis. At Noori India, the must-try dish is the Sea-Food Biriyani that the Chef skillfully prepares using shrimps, prawns and fish, in addition to dry fruits and saffron.

It is not uncommon to find diners grappling with the difficult task of selecting dishes from the rich menu of lip smacking dishes. To give them a sample of the best, Noori India has assembled ‘Set Meal’, an array of delicacies including Samosa, Chicken Tikka Masala, Mixed Vegetable Curry, Pilaf Rice and Naan.

‘Set Meal’ not only makes the choice easier, it is wallet-friendly too.

“Noori India Is the Best Place to Savor Authentic Indian Dishes” The accomplishment of Noori India is its ability to serve authentic Indian dishes without charging the patrons a ransom for the gastronomical treat.

The stylish yet comfortable Indian décor, exotic presentation and affable staff add to the dining experience. The success of the chain’s first restaurant near central Chaweng has lead to the opening of a branch in south Chaweng near Poppies and the third branch in Food Park at Central Festival Samui.

Born and bred in cosmopolitan Luxemburg, Christoph grew up with a love of French food and cooking and went on to study at the impressive Paul Bocuse Institute, France, where he qualified for a Diploma of Culinary Arts and Management. He further honed his culinary skills in Europe, working in Michelin-starred restaurants and then being part of catering teams for events such as the World Cup. He then started looking for fresh challenges further afield and came to Thailand. “What I love about working here,” he says, “is that the whole Thai culture is all about cooking and eating. As well as that you’re in the centre of things; Thailand’s midway between Australia and Europe and Bangkok is one of the top five gastronomic cities in the world.”

Christoph’s been constantly inspired since setting foot in Asia and has worked in a number of establishments in Phuket, Bangkok and Samui. As executive chef at Full Moon Char Grill at the Anantara Bophut Koh Samui Resort & Spa he’s in charge of the international fare that’s on offer and ensures that the restaurant is constantly looking to improve on its already very impressive track record.

FLAVOURS OF SAMUI Sathit Muangprom “The thing I most wanted to do was be an architect,” says chef Sathit Muangprom. “I always wanted to create something special, something that would stand out.” He then discovered he also loved cooking.

However, he didn’t choose one dream over another.

He combined both and the result is 9GEMS Lounge Restaurant. Both the architecture and design of the restaurant are all his creation and are impressive in their own right. And what you eat here is equally as good, making this a dining experience to remember.

Sathit has had plenty of cooking experience. He originally learned in Thailand, where he began providing dinners for his brothers and sisters, but then went to Europe. After spending two decades in Switzerland, where he learned European cuisine, plus traveling all over the world, it’s not surprising his tastes are very eclectic.

“My favorite dishes,” he says, “are fusion tandoori chicken salad and Home-made potato gnocchi. I also love Thai-style sea-bass with chili and basil. I make lots of Italian dishes as well as French patisserie. I’m not one for ready-made food from a shop – I prefer to make everything by myself.”

Sathit is a great believer in multi-culturalism and aims for his food to be like the restaurant he’s built and designed – a combination of both Thai and European.

With both quality design and food, he’s succeeded in combining very different creative dreams.

TRULY NAPOLITANO PIZZA Great pizza comes with strict guidelines.

At Peppina we adhere to the rules of the Associazione Verace Pizza Napoletana, an association created to promote and protect the rich heritage of pizza worldwide.

The secret to our dough is that we understand our ingredients; only water, sea salt, flour and yeast go into our dough. The dough should be pillowy and soft, and slightly elastic, with a crispness only at the edges of a blistered crust.
