ould this be somewhere in the Mediterranean? Alfresco dining on a paved open terrace shaded by ancient trees, immediately overlooking the beach. Gentle waves lapping the sand below, and the northeast wind providing a refreshing respite from the day’s sultriness. The colour palette is stark white with contrasting dark blue tones, complemented by green tinges from the surrounding trees and garden. Gentle wafts of garlic drifted up from the passing plates of food while the sounds of glasses chinked together in quiet celebration added to the informal ambience.

Yes, it could be somewhere on the Spanish, French, Italian, Greek or Turkish coastlines – though Hua Hin’s main beach is the setting. This striking restaurant – Gregal – is named after the northeast wind of the Mediterranean.

This independently operated beachside venue is the newest project from the couple known for introducing authentic Spanish cuisine to Hua Hin, Little Spain.

Gregal offers classic Mediterranean dishes using the best of Thailand’s produce in a relaxing seaside environment.

Sure, there are crisp tablecloths in intense blue and white contrast, cushion-filled timber chairs, and canvas director chairs on the lower beachside deck, though this is not a stuffy fine diner. Gregal is more like a casually chic cantina, taverna or bistro akin to a hidden gem away from Mediterranean tourist areas.

Realising a long-held dream, Vanessa Humbert and partner Roberto Spina secured permission to transform this unused, long-neglected building into their own beachside restaurant in early 2023. As with such enterprises, it took time for juristic permissions and the minimalist-styled décor renovations to be in place, thus bringing the easy-going concept to fruition. Following a daytime-only soft opening in October, they are now open from lunch to dinner six days a week (closed every Tuesday).

HOT MAGAZINE

Gregal’s menu is divided into the usual couplings of appetisers, salads, soups, pasta, rice, seafood and meat, though diners can simply drop in for a salad and refreshing beverage and be on their way. Such is the hassle-free style of Gregal. As Roberto Spina explained, “We are about classic dishes from around the Mediterranean, done well using the best quality ingredients we can source locally. The relaxed atmosphere is also an essential element.”

Our Gregal food journey started with three classics – a Seafood salad of plump and cooked prawns, mussels, clams and squid tossed in a well-balanced oil and lemon dressing accompanied by a salad garnish. Hummus and Tzatziki – both house-made and served with carrot, celery, cherry tomato crudites, olives and delectable, fluffy, light and warm pita beads.

Our final starter is delightfully fragrant and sweet melon wrapped in delicately shaved prosciutto from San Daniele, a small village in Italy’s northern Friuli Venezia Giulia.

We enjoyed Allo Scoglio from the pasta menu. Diners can choose from spaghetti, penne, fettuccine or rigatoni. Our Spaghetti Allo Scoglio was seafood rich in flavour thanks to the shellfish cooking in the wine and garlic sauce before being tossed with the pasta. From the Sea section of the menu, we chose the grilled Sea Bass Grilled with Lemon Sauce. Tomato and garlic add a light acidity to the skin-on fish fillet. This generous portion was served with roasted potatoes and a fresh salad.

16

HOT MAGAZINE

The last main was grilled Australian tenderloin beef, cooked exactly how we asked and was melt-in-the-mouth tender. The accompanying bite-sized grilled vegetables and potatoes were artistically arranged across the plate with a balsamic glaze for flavour contrast.

Those diners who can’t do without Little Spain’s Paella will be pleased to know the Gregal menu provides them three options.

Again, keeping with the classics, our desserts were a Pannacotta – creamy, light and ‘wobbly’ as it should be with a moreish blueberry compote for balance.

The Tiramisu is coffee-rich with hints of brandy through the biscuits, surrounded by sweet and creamy mascarpone and topped with a generous dusting of cocoa powder. The one departure was Crema Catalan, and instead of the set custard topped with crystalised sugar, the custard was loaded into an espuma gun and served as a foam – still with the custardy and nutmeg flavours of the classic.

For those looking for a beachside spot to take friends or families, Gregal certainly delivers. Unlike most eateries that fit this description, it is not in one of Hua Hin’s high-end hotels, and Gregal’s pricing reflects that independence.

Thanks to the tall condo tower behind Gregal, lunch dining on the outdoor deck is shaded – perfect for beachfront meals. Happy hour is available from 4 to 5:30 pm with a buy one get one offer.

Gregal is immediately beside The Royal Princess Condominium and uses the same (narrow and hard to see) laneway for access. There is dedicated restaurant parking at the end of the lane. Beach access is also available if you choose to do a beach stroll (la passeggiata in Italian or paseo for the Spanish to keep with the Mediterranean theme) before visiting.

Gregal is a very welcome Mediterranean-style addition to the Hua Hin dining scene. For more information or enquiries, visit their Facebook page or contact them via 080 891 2595 or Gregalhuahin@gmail.com.

Is India the New China? Exploring India’s Economic Potential India, the world’s fifth-largest economy, is gaining global attention for its remarkable growth potential. With a population nearing 1.5 billion, it boasts the world’s largest consumer base. Yet, despite its size, India’s GDP per capita remains relatively low, highlighting its potential to transition from “low-income” to “upper middle-income” status by doubling this metric.

Realizing India’s potential hinges on long-term policies, addressing employment, education, infrastructure, and environmental sustainability is crucial for sustained growth. Government efforts to enhance the business environment, streamline regulations, and attract foreign investment are pivotal.

Trade is a key driver for India’s growth and employment opportunities. However, high import tariffs currently hinder global integration. Embracing free trade agreements and reducing trade barriers can accelerate India’s development across various sectors.

India’s youthful population is an asset, but investing in education and training is essential. A well-educated, young workforce can attract investment, particularly in high-value sectors like technology.

India’s equity market reflects strong investor confidence in its earnings growth potential, especially in sectors like fast-moving consumer goods. While historically delivering robust returns, equity returns may not always align precisely with nominal GDP growth.

India’s economic growth differs from China’s, beginning later but accelerating through recent reforms and trade liberalization.

India’s GDP per capita lags significantly behind China’s. Achieving convergence requires continued economic reforms, infrastructure investments, and human capital development. Overcoming bureaucratic hurdles and further reforms are vital.

Conclusion: India’s Ascendance India’s economic potential makes it a formidable global contender. While not replacing China entirely, India’s unique growth story, reform focus, and sectoral investments position it as a key player on the global economic stage. Persistent efforts to address structural constraints, foster education, and create a business-friendly environment can expedite India’s growth and contribute to global prosperity.

Philanthropy and Community Spirit A pivotal aspect of the KRSR is its commitment to philanthropy and community. The charity fundraiser for the ‘Phuket Has Been Good To Us Foundation’ highlighted this dedication, with Kata Rocks playing a significant role in supporting educational opportunities for children in Thailand.

About KRSR The Kata Rocks Superyacht Rendezvous is an elite, invitation-only gathering that brings together a curated mix of Kata Rocks villa owners, superyacht enthusiasts, high-net-worth individuals, industry experts, and leading figures from the global luxury travel and yachting media.

This triumph marked a significant moment in the eleven-race series.

Ray Roberts’ TP52 Team Hollywood, despite finishing second in both races, clinched the class and overall King’s Cup title for an impressive fourth consecutive year. The IRC Zero class also saw strong performances from James & Kate Murray’s Callisto, a Pac 52, and Steve McConaghy’s Aftershock Syndicate, a Davidson 55, finishing third and fourth respectively.

The event was a spectacular showcase of sailing prowess, featuring fair conditions, tight competition, and a blend of world-class sailors. The regatta was further enhanced by excellent weather and vibrant onshore festivities, culminating in a royal touch with Her Majesty’s participation and her role in presenting the awards at the Royal Awards Ceremony.

In the Premier class, Ithinai Yingsiri’s Pine Pacific, an X-Yacht 55, dominated by winning all seven races. Peter Cremers’ Shatoosh, a Warwick 75, consistently finished second, while Hans Rahmann’s custom-built JV 72 Yasooda faced setbacks but secured third place overall.

L et’s Stay, Mondrian Singapore Duxton

erched atop Duxton Hill on the edge of Singapore's Chinatown, the newly opened Mondrian Singapore Duxton is a modern marvel. Designed by local DP Architects with interiors by the award-winning Los Angeles-based Studio Carter, the hotel boldly contrasts with the surrounding heritage-rich streets of restored shophouses. From its positioning in one of the Lion City's most cherished and happening neighbourhoods, Mondrian Singapore guests enjoy easy access to the city's attractions through its proximity to the efficient mass transit system.

The brand first launched in the heart of Los Angeles in 1996, with Mondrian hotels now in New York, South Miami Beach, Cannes, Ibiza, Doha, London, Mexico City and Seoul, South Korea.

Taking inspiration from Dutch painter and art scholar Piet Mondrian, heralded by many as an icon of modernist art, Mondrian hotels are bold, brave, playful and perhaps even seductive and striking, offering something new and stimulating for locals and travellers alike.

Art is everywhere at Mondrian Singapore, curated by Artling, Asia's premier art advisors and tastemakers. The multi-disciplinary collection showcases the cream of international and local talent. Artists include lauded British icon Tracey Emin along with Ian Davenport, best known for his 'puddle' paintings in major galleries around the world, US installation specialists SOFTlab, Spaniard Fares Micue, Australia's Emma Anna, American Tyler Shields, and Singaporeans Dawn Ng and André Wee. The pièce de résistance is the 6m tall, 4114kg bronze sculpture by acclaimed US artist KAWS (aka Brian Donnelly) titled "What Party." The sculpture features the artist's popular character, CHUM, an appropriated persona from popular culture, and it is one of KAWS's most significant works in Asia. On permanent public display in front of the hotel, this statement piece is already becoming a Singapore landmark. Whispers suggest Mondrian Singapore will create an art map so guests can tour and learn about the diverse collection.

Having passed Duxton Hill's streets and lanes abuzz with barista cafes, world-class eateries and bars, avant-garde galleries, and fashionista boutiques, your arrival at Mondrian Singapore can be confusing as no grand lobby awaits. Guests are quickly escorted past Christina's cafe into a lift for a one-floor ride, landing in front of the hotel's light and garden-filled signature restaurant.

Mondrian's reception desk is 'hidden' behind a floor-to-ceiling velvety drape to the restaurant's left.

Most of Mondrian's 302 rooms in the 12-story hotel tower are thoughtfully designed, delightfully appointed and a compact 22 sqm.

Ensuite bathrooms feature a rainfall shower and the New York skincare brand MALIN+GOETZ bath amenities. A hospitably curated minibar, Lavazza coffee machine and Monogram tea sachets add to the rooms' comforts.

Five of the hotel's suites are on the tower's higher floors, and these Pinnacle Suites with sleek lines enjoy separate living, dining and bedroom areas and expansive city views.

HOT MAGAZINE

The jewels in the Mondrian Duxton crown are the five Shophouse Suites, occupying the top floor of a row of five two-storey shophouse conversions.

Situated in a separate wing, these expansive 50 sqm Shophouse Suites are accessible through a courtyard garden on the second (lobby level) floor. Each suite features vaulted ceilings, heritage arches and shutters, bespoke wooden furnishings, and soft woven rugs, all making for stylishly relaxed stays.

These suites can also become intimate event venues for private gatherings and launches as the Murphy Beds fold and disappear into the wall.

Completing Mondrian Singapore are four food and drink establishments.

Overlooking the terracotta-roofed shophouses of Duxton Hill and the CBD skyline, the rooftop and glitzy 1970s Hollywood-inspired Canyon Club is the place to be and be seen. Wind down in the lush poolside cabanas with a stellar cocktail in hand or a snack from the Californian-inspired and Raw Bar-leaning menu. A magnificent spot for sundowners and a decidedly Instagrammable rooftop pool.

HOT MAGAZINE

79

On lobby level, the hotel's signature restaurant, Bottega di Carna, is a casual modern Italian eatery that includes prime cuts of the finest meats in the world. Legendary butcher and Tuscan native Dario Cecchini from Netflix's Chef's Table and his own restaurant, Solociccia, is responsible for the concept. Day-to-day operations are overseen by Executive Chef Alastair Clayton and Chef de Cuisine Kenny Huang, who play to the theatre of the open kitchen. Two and three-course set-lunch menus feature Chef's favourite Italian delights, while the Aperitivo hour is ideal for winding down after a busy day.

With its external entrance, Jungle Ballroom is a cocktail paradise and one of the few Singapore establishments with a 2 am closing. The acclaimed mixologist team take their cocktails and locally sourced ingredients seriously, using the jungle levels (from treetop to forest floor) to group their craft concoctions.

The sculptural sunken lava stone bar, DJ-compiled beats, low lighting, and buzzy crowd add to a 'place to be' feel.

HOT MAGAZINE

Christina's on the ground floor is the first aspect of the Mondrian Singapore guests encounter. With its switched-on barista team offering locally roasted speciality coffee, breakfast, brunch bites, and beyond, this café-come-wine bar is a hive of activity and a great meeting place. By night, Christina's transforms into a stylish sanctuary with a tapas-style menu and a hand-picked selection of craft beers, natural wines, and cocktails. Three other restaurants in the covered walkway immediately off Mondrian's entrance offer Japanese, Mediterranean-North African, or Pacific South American.

With its choice of gathering spaces, Mondrian Singapore Duxton sees itself as a 'hangout' for everyone. Mondrian is part of Ennismore, one of the fastest-growing hospitality companies, curating and managing experiences and unique properties in some of the most exciting destinations worldwide.

Established in 2021, Ennismore is a joint venture with French hospitality giant Accor.
