25 years since it opened, Baan Rim Pa has won more fine dining awards than any other. In its cliffside teak house, impeccably prepared Royal Thai Cuisine is just part of a fine dining experience. Panoramic views over Patong Bay are complemented by surf crashing onto the rocky beach, mingling with Dr. Prasert Khunthongchan and Broadway standards – wafting from the piano bar. Then there’s the cellar with its 300 bottles of the finest wines from all corners of the globe, winner of Wine Spectator’s Award of Excellence every year since 2002. Baan Rim Pa’s private dining room, comfortably seats 30 for dinner or 50 for cocktail parties. Whether it’s a romantic dinner for two, hosting visitors or a special party, it’s no surprise that they call Baan Rim Pa “simply the finest in the Kingdom”. Next door, Joe’s Downstairs is a different world. Crisp white décor, long terrazzo bar and outdoor dining decks just feet away from the ocean are part of what make Joe’s unique. Award-winning Chef Aaron Hooper’s distinctive menu combines New World cuisine with Asian and Western style tapas. Enjoy tapas as a snack, a meal or a prelude to your à la carte dinner, which could include Alaskan Crab, Live Maine Lobster or the finest imported steaks – all, as you’d expect, accompanied by your choice from Joe’s Wine Spectator Award-winning cellar. A favourite haunt of celebrities – and the island choice for weddings and birthday parties with a touch of class – Joe’s is unbeatable, whether for a light lunch, sunset cocktails or a fine dinner. 20 years and many awards on, Da Maurizio Bar Ristorante (next door to Joe’s) continues to offer discerning diners the finest contemporary Italian cuisine. Almost on the rocks, this is one of the most stunning settings on Phuket – its spectacular backdrop a favourite for wedding parties up to 100. Chef/owner Maurizio Laureri, known for his wine dinners with their stimulating menus, changes the restaurant menu every month. Choose live local fish, crab, lobster and other shell fish, homemade pastas, exotic salads and imported delicacies such as black and white truffle. And, of course, the Wine Spectator Award-winning cellar.

Three-in-one and all winners!

Established in 2000, Two Chefs is one of Phuket’s best-known and best-loved restaurant brands, with a reputation for excellence. Their newest location, in Rawai on the southeast of the island (just a short distance south of Chalong Circle), offers a fresh twist on beachside dining in Phuket. Two Chefs Beach Bar & Restaurant is inside the upmarket Serenity Resort & Residences, a stunning, laid-back, luxurious venue. This is a great spot for a light lunch, sundowner cocktails, a romantic evening or dinner with friends, with superb views of the many small islands just offshore Rawai and Chalong. A few palm trees frame the edge of the resort, as if paying homage to the vintage postcard-paradise scene. Although the restaurant is all open-air, set in the lush, green resort gardens, there is a choice of sitting beachside, poolside or under a covered terrace. The innovative menu offers light appetisers, Italian favourites, international dishes, Scandinavian specialities and a modern take on Thai favourites, as well as a variety of beers and spirits, while the wine and champagne list is extensive and sure to satisfy even the fussiest wine lover. Two Chefs Beach Bar & Restaurant is a great choice for a business lunch or a family dinner and they can also handle anything from an elegant, romantic candlelit rooftop dinner to a party for up to 300 guests. Impressive! Two Chefs’ secret of success is serving up some of the most delicious food on the island at affordable prices. Service staff are friendly and eager to give recommendations, while remaining professional and unobtrusive. Outside Rawai, there are four Two Chefs Bar & Grill restaurant outlets, in Karon Beach, Kata Beach, Kata Center and Patong. These restaurants have been driven forward by the same management team for 15 years, which goes some way to explaining the reputation for excellence the brand has achieved, as well as their loyal following among Phuket residents and regular overseas visitors alike. 7

Leprechaun Irish Pub Last night, I shook hands with a leprechaun; he told me his name was Paddy... Not an everyday experience, but perfectly normal at The Drunken Leprechaun (TDL) Irish Pub – Patong’s latest addition to the genre – where the meet-and-greet is done by a bunch of very happy-looking ‘little people’. TDL is a fun place spread over two floors – with the upper floor gallery looking down onto the ground floor, where the extremely talented musicians play live music every night from 8-til-late. Boasting authentic Irish food and drinks, sports on screen throughout the pub and a pool table, TDL is like a warm home-away-from-home. Planning to stay as authentic as possible for this Irish experience, I kicked off by ordering a Black & Tan (mixed Guinness & Kilkenny), then immediately got stuck into the pub grub with Potato Skins (filled with bacon, cheese & sour cream) and Beef Guinness Pie (beef stew topped with puff pastry). It would be enough to say that the food was delicious; or that the portions were generous. In fact, both are true and I struggled to finish. Not so the gent on a nearby table, who had accepted the TDL’s 15-minute challenge: finish 1,030 baht’s worth of food and drink in15 minutes and get it for free! I did leave just enough room, though, for a dessert that intrigued me: Guinness Cake (served with black coffee bean ice cream). Interesting, with a subtle taste that I wouldn’t have been able to identify if I hadn’t known... Authentic Irish pub food, décor that puts you in mind of an Irish pub, a delightful service team who do everything they can to make you feel welcome, an extensive drinks and food menu, as well as two of the most talented musicians I’ve seen on the circuit for a long time... why WOULDN’T you become a regular at TDL. To prove the point, TDL has already become the favourite of holiday-makers based in the area! With most main courses under 300 baht and a pint of Carlsberg at only 150 baht, you can spend some quality time at TDL without taking out a mortgage. But don’t go there to eat unless you take a healthy appetite with you – or a large ‘doggy bag’!

This was my first beach club and it was impressive: right on the beach, relaxed atmosphere – and lots of natural shade. Time your arrival right and, if you look a little to the south, you can view a spectacular sunset over the headland. We headed to the bar for cocktails – a Blissjito and a Caipiroblisski – tongue twisters to say the least! After downing the cocktails, we moved to our table with a view of the ocean through the trees and sound of waves lapping at the beach. Starters were Taco-Shimi (seared yellow fin Ahi tuna with avocado relish in a bite-sized taco shell, topped with a touch of wasabi cream) and contrasting bite-sized Bangkok Nachos (rare Wagyu striploin, avocado, ‘nam jim jaew’ and smoked jalapeno chilli), all served on warmed rock slabs. Delicious and innovative creations! Each dish complemented the other much the same as a mini surf-and-turf combination. To go with our starters we ordered a bottle Sicilian Sedara by Donna Fugata, a full bodied masculine red wine. We eased back into a lighter-on-the-palate Tuscan Sangiovese Rigoleto by Colle Massari to accompany the main courses. We gave the Euro Burger a try. A tasty combination of prime ground beef, goat’s cheese, Mediterranean olive/pickle relish, rocket salad and oven-dried tomatoes, accompanied by garlic Parmesan fries. This one is for big appetites! Then it was Seabass Fillet with polenta, Parmesan, pumpkin seed, chimmi churri (finely-chopped parsley, minced garlic, olive oil, oregano and white vinegar) and fresh tomatoes. By coincidence, another outstanding surf-and-turf deal! Finally, we tucked into a unique Peach & Crème Brulée Napoléon Green Tea Anglaise with phyllo pastry – and finished with espressos to wake ourselves up for the drive home. Bliss has just what we expect from a sophisticated tropical holiday destination: it’s right on the beach, has an extensive drinks list, a truly innovative menu, perfectly pitched mood music and plenty of space inside (it does rain sometimes) and outside. And lucky expats get to enjoy this all year round… Don’t forget Bliss is not just for adults! They cater brilliantly for families with kids – and have a great kids’ menu. 9

We arrived at peaceful Naiton Beach just before sunset and handed our car keys to the Trisara valet, boarded a golf cart and were driven through quiet alleyways to the beachfront bar, pool and restaurants. We started with cocktails outside, just a few metres from the beachside restaurant. I selected a Trisara Pisco Sour, claimed by Peru as its national drink, athough Chile also lays claim. My partner took the less contentious Passionfruit Margarita. While we considered our order, we enjoyed an amuse bouche followed by a bread tray with a selection of natural, garlic or black truffle homemade butter. I started with Smoked Salmon with avocado, brioche, yuzu, daikon and salmon caviar, while my partner chose Tuna ‘burnt’, with Phuket oyster, quinoa, seaweed, cucumber and with a grated sprinkling of Buddha’s Hand (a citrus fruit shaped like fingers). To accompany our meal we chose a semi-sweet Austrian Kracher Chardonnay (a beneficiary of the ‘noble rot’) and were drawn to the Oyster Bar between courses. We shared a Trio of Special Oysters comprising Fin de Claire with saffron, hollandaise, chives and deep fried shallots; Irish Oyster with white miso, white balsamic, citrus and black sesame; Belon Oyster with bergamot, horseradish and green apple. We followed that with Canadian Lobster poached with bone marrow, baby onion, sweet carrot jus and green asparagus and Tiger Prawns seared and served on a bed of Himalayan salt, accompanied by pilaf rice. Surprisingly, we still had room for desserts. While our choices may sound simple, they were not. We shared Coconut Culture and Cheese Cake and were mightily impressed. The service staff were courteous, efficient and, most important, friendly – taking care happily of our every need. I could not find words to adequately describe how good everything we sampled was, in both presentation and taste. Brilliant, superb, fantastic or even “blown away” are close, but inadequate. Maybe this: we struggled to eat slower just so we could enjoy longer. Everyone should experience the restaurant Seafood at Trisara at least once. It is quite simply, WOW!

Wine & Grill Kata Boathouse has been a Kata Beach landmark since the last century and has had several renovations since first opening, the latest in 2012. The location is first class, right on the beach, waves practically lapping at your toes. I‘ve dined there often over the past 20 years and have always been impressed. A brighter and more airy Boathouse today offers alfresco dining on the balcony overlooking the beach, inside dining still with spectacular views and upstairs on the terrace, which has its own air-conditioned dining room that can be booked for private dinners. Now to the food… We kicked off with a selection of amuses bouche compliments of the chef, followed by Lobster Bisque Velouté (flambéed with brandy along with generous portions of lobster and garlic bread). My partner chose Escargots (classic French snails with garlic butter and parsley). Between courses, I chose a melt-in-the-mouth Pan-fried duck foie gras with sautéed wild mushrooms and port reduction. To accompany our meal we took a sweet and fruity Jurançon Famille Castel 2009, which made for a refreshing combination that served us well all evening, right through to desserts. For main course I chose the Trilogy of Rock Lobster (served with three sauces: green curry, Armagnac, Thermidor) – heavenly! My partner had the succulent Thailand Charolaise Beef. I had left room for Banana fritters and coconut ice cream and my more adventurous partner chose the Chocolate Praline (a chocolate monster with mouse, chocolate sponge cake, chunky flakes of chocolate and praline chocolate sauce). The Boathouse team were friendly and obviously trained to a high standard; many have worked there for 15 years. It’s really hard to go wrong at Boathouse. Excellent service, extensive top quality menu and wine list, delicious food and right on the beach with a view to die for, especially at sunset. Add to that the atmosphere with a live duo playing flute and piano, the lapping of the waves – and arguably the best wine cellar on the island – what more could you ask for...? ...well, this actually: they have a take-you-home service for guests who have drunk too much to drive safely. Collect your car next day. Smart move! And a local pick-up service too. 11

@ Amatara Phuket Resort & Wellness How about a luxurious spread of the freshest seafood, meats and vegetables prepared using innovative and unique cooking techniques? An amazing meal that will etch itself in memory for a long time... Combine that with fine wines from around the world and a stunning location dining al fresco with views of the Andaman Sea. You’ll be unable to resist! The recently opened Amatara Phuket Resort & Wellness boasts an exquisite setting at which to savour such an occasion. Executive Chef Justin Baziuk plans and steers the evening on a culinary journey that begins with sourcing the best and freshest ingredients from all over the world. Beef has been farm raised and grass or grain fed, the poultry is organic and the seafood caught fresh daily, while produce is obtained from organic farmers. Finger foods, breads and sweets are all made in house. Chef Justin – renowned for his passion in all aspects of cooking (and indeed his passion in explaining it!) – served an unparalleled array of appetizers, main courses and desserts. Scallops, scotch single malt salmon, blue crab ravioli and foie gras marked the beginning, exhibiting an intricate combination of ingredients, perfect on the palate and elegantly presented. The main course featured top-notch quality meats from Australia – pedigree Hereford and Black Angus beef and lamb – cooked to medium-rare perfection. Side dishes and fine wines were glorious accompaniments. The irrestible sweet treats included a French-style cheesecake and an assortment of chocolate treasures beautifully crafted. Not forgetting the between-courses palate cleanser: fruit sherbet and Bailey’s ice cream. Perfect! Top quality ingredients, on which Chef Justin has based some outstanding dishes, together with flair in preparation and presentation combine to create a memorable occasion. Along with superb hospitality and a peaceful and idyllic setting, the recipe is there for an elegant and unmatched evening.

Governor Mansion Phuket The discovery of a new, outstanding venue to savour exquisite traditional Thai cuisine and admire the history and culture of Phuket in a setting of unsurpassed ambiance is not-to-bemissed. Top it off with the fact that the chef responsible for the food and owner of the restaurant is none other than Chef Nooror Somany Steppé, founder of the Blue Elephant group, and your table is set for a fine gourmet evening. The newly-opened Blue Elephant Governor Mansion Phuket Cooking School & Restaurant is the 13th restaurant in the Blue Elephant Group. Set In a landmark elegant Sino-Portuguese mansion, built in 1903, that was once the Governor of Phuket’s home, a meal offers not only dishes created by a HAPA (Hospitality Asia Platinum Awards 20082010) for ‘One of the Most Creative Chefs in Asia’ winner, but an insight into the architecture and décor of the times. The heart of a fine dining experience is elaborate dishes elegantly displayed and subtly, exquisitely spiced. The Royal Thai Banquet includes an array of starters, soups, main courses and desserts, which range in degrees of spiciness and represent an innovative approach to Thai cooking with a spectrum of recipes from the past and present with a look to the future. Starters include Chor Muang, a steamed flower shaped dumpling, Doi Kham Salad, purple eggplant salad with grilled scallops, Labb Salmon, a salmon tartar and Black Chicken Crispy Spring Rolls. Enticing soups include a choice of Tom Kha Kai Black Chicken, a soup of coconut milk and galangal and Tom Klong Wild Red Sea Bass, a spicy and sour soup. Main courses, a variety of seafood and meats, are tantalizing. Nooror’s Massaman Lamb, a coconut milk curry with potatoes, peanuts and cashew nuts, is described in a 19th century poem by King Rama II. Then there’s Duck with Tamarind Sauce, Black Chicken Green Curry, Phad Sator Koong, prawns with parkia in shrimp paste and Bamboo Fish, Parrot fish cooked in a bamboo case. Exceptional. Professional. Outstanding hospitality. Topnotch service. These elements, brought together in historic surroundings, ensure the Blue Elephant is a not-to-bemissed dining experience on any discerning diner’s list. 13

A true oasis in the heart of Patong... A sports bar with lots of international sports on multiple screens throughout, Hooters’ pedigree dates back to April Fools Day in 1983 in Clearwater, Florida. Waitresses are numerous, energetic and uniformly cute. Every half hour they stop serving and entertain you with one of their 20 choreographed dance routines. Hooters is about sports, fun and food – but not necessarily in that order. We were greeted as we entered and offered a sidewalk table where we could watch the the world go by, upstairs in air conditioning or stools at the bar. We chose the bar and started our Hooters night with a couple of cocktails (a Mango Mojito and a Mango Margarita). I’m a bit of a TV channel changer at home, so it was easy here for me to take in the cricket, rugby, women’s golf and Aussie Rules football all at the same time! After our cocktails, we moved to the raised undercover sidewalk seating that stretches down the side of the Hooters apparel shop. There were plenty of ceiling fans, all running at high speed to keep the airflow brisk and cool. We started with Boneless Wings (with an amazing choice of 11 cooking flavours and four dip varieties) and Crumbed Calamari, both cooked to perfection and served promptly. We’d enjoyed the mojitos and margaritas earlier, so carried on with a few more. For mains we outdid ourselves ordering the Ribs. Neither of us were able to finish because we wanted to leave a little room to sample the desserts. We ended up with doggy bags and enjoyed our ribs all over again the next day for lunch – scrumptious both times! We heard it was common for diners to underestimate the meal sizes and doggy bags were the norm. We managed to get down a couple of Pecan Pies but then had to call it quits. Hooters’ menu is varied and we only skimmed the surface. I’ll come back with a larger group next time to experience more of the impressive menu. Upbeat music accompanied us during the evening with middle of the road retro and latest hits. Nothing heavy and no disco or house music – Just right!

Day & Night Beach Club Vibrant, chic and upbeat, with a refreshing new slant on the roof top beach club scene. It’s hard to be different nowadays, yet On Top have managed to add various twists to every aspect of a rooftop club venue, including real palm trees, flames from cauldrons of charcoal and much, much more. We were greeted by one of the attractive attendants and led past a strip of VIP cabanas and a mermaid in a small pool lazing in a hammock. Yes, a mermaid! On our left were numerous dining settings with a large protective awning. Perched on high stools overlooking the street, with a view to the beach and the Patong skyline, we devoured a couple of ‘On Top’ signature cocktails: Cai-beer-inha (Singha beer, limes, brown sugar and crushed mint leaves) and a Pearl of Mermaid (Chalong Bay Rum, passion fruit tapioca and melon liquor). Time for dinner! To start, we shared Garden of Eden (Niçoise beef tartar with quail egg, taggiasche olives, yellow and purple potatoes and anchovy emulsion) and a Pinky Temptation (marinated shrimp, caviar, cauliflower dressed with Campari and raspberry vinaigrette.) We topped that off with Sushi and Sashimi, including mackerel, tuna, salmon and octopus. A stroll between courses revealed the rest of the venue, which spans two roof tops and includes a professional kitchen, a good sized swimming pool surround by comfy deck loungers near another small dining area. The venue has four individual locations for dining to suit all tastes and a sizable bar area, all with panoramic views and a retractable roof. Then it was crisp Fish Tacos – filled with butter fish, lettuce and avocado along with a Mexican chipotle cream sauce. And we downed a bottle of Australian Jacob’s Creek Chardonnay, although you can get every drink (nonalcoholic too) imaginable from the extensive drinks menu. The music was thumping, a good mix with plenty of variety including House, Disco as well as more recent hits, with some retro thrown into the mix. At On Top, you can swim, eat, drink and chill out, while enjoying a beach lounger with complimentary towel and umbrella. I wonder why you’d bother going to the beach... 15

at Dream Phuket Hotel & Spa We arrived to find a convenient valet service, so it was just hop out and hand over the keys and be escorted to VU, the rooftop bar, for pre-dinner cocktails. So far all seamless and convenient. For our cocktails we both chose VU signature cocktails Clever not Clover and Mango Gala, both. Subtle and unique, they went down well! We shared a Big Kahuna Salad of crisp greens, grilled chilled chicken, juicy pineapple, red peppers, green beans, red onion, red cabbage and cucumbers – all tossed in sweet and tangy vinaigrette, layered between crispy wontons then finished with sesame seeds. A nicely chilled glass each of Matua Valley Sauvignon Blanc from New Zealand’s Marlborough Sound was the perfect accompaniment. Once the sunset had done its thing and we had devoured our salad, we took the lift down to Trilogy restaurant, overlooking the pool, where we opted for outside seating, but undercover. It was a beautiful balmy evening, ideal for al fresco dining – though an air conditioned dining area was an option. I started in on Lobster Bisque, with sizeable chunks of lobster and a reduced ‘soup’ with brandy, while my partner chose the French Onion Soup with cheese croutons. Then it was Surf ‘n Turf and Boston Lobster for our main course – both perfectly prepared and equisitely presented. We continued with wine by the glass, this time a Yellow Tail Shiraz from Australia. The night was still young and we’d heard that Indulge was another venue at Dream to savour! So off we went to a nearby lift and down to the ground floor. Plush leather seating and jazz / blues sounds set the mood in this gentlemen’s ‘club’. We capped our evening here with a couple of espressos, a glass of Hennessy XO, a Montecristo Edmundo cigar, a Grand Marnier – and a Tiramisu. We were in heaven! Dream is an easy place to stay and a hard place to leave. As our evening drew to a close, we started thinking about doing it all again – but in reverse order! We could start at Indulge for a light tapas snacks, move to Trilogy for a midafternoon light lunch, then maybe a swim followed by the pool bar, then afterwards up to VU for sunset cocktails and desserts. Now there’s an idea…

Ample parking and easy access are two of the upsides to luxury resort dining – and Bodega & Grill at Angsana Laguna Phuket didn’t disappoint. Offered the choice of undercover alfresco dining or inside air-conditioned, we went for the comfort of the latter, kicking off with mango and lemon margarita cocktails. The lemongrass scented and chilled towels were a welcome freshener after the non-aircond walk from car to restaurant. Confronted with a complimentary bowl of freshly trimmed raw garden vegetables, with mustard dip, this diehard red meat eater was intrigued by the presentation and the concept – and decided to have a go at eating only healthy choices on this occasion. So I started with a healthy Panzanella Salad, a medley of organic tomatoes, cucumber, Spanish onion, peppers, Tuscan bread, juniper-cinnamon home-smoked rainbow trout and a caper-anchovy dressing. An adventurous new direction for my taste buds! My partner chose the Bodega’s Carpaccio – porterhouse beef and Phuket lobster with artichokes and fennel salad, citrus dressing and fresh rocket leaves. Next I indulged myself in a brief departure from my newfound health kick. The Creamy Maine Lobster Bisque Cappuccino, generous on the lobster, was my undoing. My partner fared little better with a delicious Broccoli Cream Soup with walnuts, extra virgin olive oil and homemade ham-filled cappelletti. OK, so my “healthy choices” idea didn’t last! For our main course, we hit the red meat: Australian Jack Creek 500 Days Old Grain Fed Premium Wagyu Beef, mine a Rib Eye with béarnaise dressing accompanied by Creamy Spinach With Nutmeg And Peanut, my partner’s a Fillet Mignon with red wine and shallot juice and Roasted Garlic-Rosemary Potatoes. The perfect steaks were eased down by a Yellow Tail Shiraz, a full bodied red from a Sicilian family vineyard near Griffith in Australia. For dessert, we gorged ourselves on Tiramisu and a Chocolate Fondant Cake. Both were impressive, but the Chocolate Fondant got top marks. A solo acoustic guitarist playing subtle background music fitted the restaurant’s mood perfectly, while the attention to detail exhibited by the service team was second to none!

Then check out the menu or, if you prefer, ask one of the efficient and friendly service staff for recommendations. Hungry yet? There’s an amazing selection of food to satisfy all tastes! In the day time, XANA serves refreshing salads and delicious beach food – including the famous XANA No Rules Burger, and in the evening XANA specialises in modern seafood and international club cuisine. For starters, try XANA’s Tuna Tataki, slices of sesame seed crusted Saku tuna on deep fried spicy green papaya salad. The Hawaiian Chicken Salad served in a pineapple shell is a rich display of colours and a delightful taste sensation. If you’re a hamburger connoisseur, Phuket’s Best Burger is one to rave over! Consists of the golden ratio of grilled Wagyu Marble 7 and Kurobuta Pork blended together in a delicious patty, with the perfect amount of fat to keep the burger spot-on juicy. The Wagyu Beef Tenderloin, delicately seared on the outside and pink on the inside, served with a mixed salad, is simple but perfect. Then there’s a selection of red and white wines by the glass or bottle, and a good choice of desserts, to polish off your meal. Superb food and beverages in a classy environment combine to make an unbeatable experience. So don’t just go to the beach! Go to XANA Beach Club for a great meal and a relaxing, fun, day and evening out!

Karon Beach Square

Various Tel: 0 7639 6139

Only metres from Karon Beach, Mövenpick’s Karon Beach Square is the only complete ‘dining and chill’ destination of its type in the south of Phuket, with four very different dining options, a great range of local and imported beers, a fine selection of premium wines and spirits and a professional mixologist – who doubles as a juggler! Café Studio is a great place to relax and the perfect place to laze away an afternoon. Just watch the world go by or plug in your laptop in the library and take advantage of the free WiFi! Whether you’re there for just a few cool drinks or a refreshing feast, you won’t be disappointed. Marinated Seafood, Greek Salad and Pia-Diavolo Pizza are typical menu items. For dinner, wander over to El Gaucho for a Brazilian Churrasco treat, where the steaks are served “off the sword” – and they do mean a sword! Choose à la carte or go for the all-in Churrasco option, helping yourself to an abundant array of salads and choosing your meats from the sword. The succulent tenderloin is ‘pick of the bunch’, but musttry other meats include crocodile, chicken, rib-eye, T-bone, pork fillet and pork spare ribs. Sauces to go with the meats include Brazilian pepper, mushroom and bitter Chimichurri sauce (originally an Argentinian concoction). Next on the agenda, if you fancy oriental instead of Latin American, upstairs you’ll find Orient Asia. Here, the décor speaks of Asian influences with red wall panels, subtle back lighting and contrasting dark wood furniture. Decorative Chinese urns and bottles occupy the shelves along the walls. Here you’ll be pampered with Asian delights such as Thai Warm Shrimp Salad with lemongrass-mint leaf, Tom Kha Gai (spicy chicken and herbs cooked in coconut milk soup), Roast Duck Saigon or Steamed Whole Sea Bass with Lime garnished with chilli, garlic and coriander. For a change of pace and style, move on over to “upbeat and buzzing” Mint, with its lively ambience and not-tooloud music. While this is a very much a family orientated restaurant, there’s a lot going on, including frequent theme nights. Dinner is a choice of à la carte or help-yourself from the well-stocked carvery and buffet.

About Chef George Newling-Ward

White snapper fillet

George’s career started in the British Virgin Islands and after culinary school he staged at the Savoy Hotel in London. Next was Le Cabanon French Bistro. Three years ago George moved to Bangkok before coming to Phuket and the Impiana Resort Patong.

1 white snapper fillet spring onions cherry tomatoes citrus crust

zest of lemon & lime chopped parsley 5 ml olive oil

Chef George is from the UK and his culinary passion comes from his grandmother and real ‘farm-to-table’ youthful experiences.

Method Mix the bread crumbs, citrus zest and olive oil. Cut the fillet into three slices, season then roll in breadcrumbs. Place breaded fish on an oiled baking dish and bake @ 360° 5-6 min until golden brown.

Lemongrass cream 1 cup cooking cream lemongrass stalk 1 shallot

salt & pepper sugar 1 cup water

Method Chop the lemongrass and simmer for 20 min until flavour has infused. Strain into a saucepan and reduce to 1/3 cup. Slice shallot and add to the reduction with the cream until thick. Season with sugar, salt and pepper.
