BANGKOK `Etcha` a magical Dining Experience.

What is it ? – A relatively new (2025) Bangkok city centre restaurant leaning heavily on Ingredients very carefully sourced from all over Thailand.

The Restaurant is situated on floor 7 inside the Chatrium hotel. Head over to your booking nice and early to enjoy a Cocktail on the top floor lounge. (Below)

What`s Cooking ? – A clever and inventive blend of classical heritage Italian cuisine and very well researched ethical Thai ingredients. An entirely new and different Bangkok dining concept.

Who`s Cooking ? – ItalianChef Giacomo Primante worked at 3* L`Arpege in Paris (Alain Passard) , 3* DiverXO in Spain, 3* Mirazur in Menton , France (Mauro Colagreco) , 3* Benu , San Francisco (Corey Lee), 1* Aulis Phuket (Simon Rogan)

What should I expect ? High quality fine dining and well sourced prime ingredients cooked to absolute perfection by an extremely skilled young Chef , at a very reasonable price that won`t break the bank.

Must Order dish – There`s only the one menu for dinner – Etcha`s 360deg Tasting menu, 12 delightful courses.

What will it cost me ? Tasting menu (12 courses) – £108 / $146 / THB 4,750++. // A smaller 8 Course menu is available upon request. Wine pairing available at £66 / $89 / THB 2,900++

My thoughts – .It`s new , it`s exciting , the staff are all hungry and motivated , Chef`s extremely passionate and totally immersed in his new venture. All in all i`d definitely recommend a visit here.

What`s the Atmosphere like ? Great location for a Romantic meal , it`s dark and moody with a very warm ambience creating a very unique dining atmoshere.Service was friendly and we totally hit it off with our Manager. We even arranged a night out with them all on our next trip to Bangkok.

What`s a good dish ? – The Mud Crab , served in an upturned Ceramic bowl was stunning but sadly 2 spoon-scoops and it was gone – which left me craving for more.

What`s even better ? – “World class” 42 day matured Thai Wagyu Beef from Khon Kaen served with Beetroot 3-ways was a stand out experience.

Any Negatives Would I return ? – Absolutely , I`ll definitely be back for more and to experience a new seasonal menu. It`ll be really nice to watch this young restaurant growing.
