“With-washed timber and lotus patterned walls, polished concrete floors and silk cushions.”
Luxe Bangkok, Luxe Asia Limited - January 2007
"A well-lit, L-shaped room drenched in relaxing cream and earth colours with upholstered chairs and sofas...Adequate food to fuel shoppers visiting the Jim Thompson House. Poh pia gai, chicken spring rolls, are a bit boring, but gai hor bai toey, marinated chicken chunks wrapped in pandanus leaves are big, delicious, deep-fried, boneless, juicy pieces infused with a slightly sweet sauce. Caesar salad with pan-fried salmon amazes with warm slices of fish in a pleasingly cheesy salad...
Naphalai Areesorn, Thailand Tatler - January 2007
"Cream-and-white walls and a white stone floor lend an airy and uplifting atmosphere heightened by silk-covered pillows dotting the comfortable sofas and chairs. The large, L-shaped room is modern and cool, with thin columns supporting the ceiling. Tranquil outdoor dining is also available. Shy but capable staff politely steers meals with efficiency and case."
Naphalai Areesorn, Thailand Tatler - January 2006
"The restaurant is set under one of the compound's elevated Thai houses and is divided into three sections: an outdoor terrace, an air-conditioned fine dining area and a lounge zone. The Thompson Bar and Restaurant boasts a spectacular interior by internationally-renowned designer, Ou Baholyodhin. Juxtaposed to the breezy, farang-favourite, dining al fresco by a lotus pond, an automated glass door opens on to a contemporary-style dining room where sensuous ancient elements are brilliantly mingled with crisp modern materials."
