A Surprise Return
A star returns. Don’t miss the special culinary collaboration between Ms.Jigger, the award-winning restaurant at Kimpton Maa-Lai Bangkok, and Chef Riley Sanders—running from 1 August to 14 September 2025. Ms.Jigger proudly welcomes back Chef Riley Sanders, the visionary behind the now-closed Canvas, a former one-MICHELIN-starred restaurant that helped redefine Bangkok’s fine dining landscape. This marks Chef Riley’s first public appearance in the kitchen since Canvas closed its doors. Renowned for his abstract, emotion-driven cuisine, Canvas was celebrated for pushing culinary boundaries—transforming locally sourced Thai ingredients into artful expressions of form, flavor, and feeling through modern techniques, personalized ceramics, and deep storytelling. Titled "Expressions", Chef Riley’s collaborative menu at Ms.Jigger explores three emotional themes—Playfulness, Intrigue, and Satisfaction—with each dish designed to evoke a distinct sensory journey. The essence of his cooking remains: a reverence for Thai ingredients, seasonality, and bold creativity. The special three-course menu is available for lunch and dinner exclusively at Ms.Jigger at THB 1,490++ per person, with an optional wine pairing, curated by Bangkok-based sommelier Alison Christ, at THB1,190++. 📌 Ms.Jigger, Kimpton Maa-Lai Bangkok ⏰️ 11:30 am - 12 am, Pets are welcome on the terrace from 11:30 am - 5:00 pm 🗓️ 1 August - 14 September 2025 For reservations, please contact: Tel. 02-056-9999, Line: @ms.jigger, or email msjigger.kimptonmaalai@ihg.com.

The Essence of Paris
Café Claire Unveils a Fresh Take on Parisian Bistro Dining in Bangkok. Led by Executive Chef Remi Verrier, whose experience includes 3-Michelin-star kitchens, the new dishes celebrate classic French techniques paired with fresh, seasonal ingredients. The result is a modern French dining experience in the heart of Bangkok. Signature highlights include Grenouilles Croustillantes (frog legs with garlic and parsley), Œuf Meurette (poached egg in red wine with lardons and mash), and Bone Marrow Café Claire Style, featuring 48-hour brisket and garlic bread. Other bistro classics range from the Grilled Bavette Steak to the indulgent Soupe VGE with foie gras and truffle. Vegetarian and vegan options are thoughtfully crafted, such as Gnocchi à la Romaine with pea purée and parmesan chips, and Beetroot Risotto with roasted pistachios. Cheese and charcuterie boards add to the French café experience. For dessert, enjoy the show-stopping Baked Alaska, light Vacherin with Strawberries, or rich Profiteroles with hot chocolate sauce. This marks Café Claire’s first major revamp in over a decade, inviting guests to rediscover French bistro dining in a setting of relaxed elegance.
