Norbert A Kostner Executive Chef A native of Southern Tyrol in Italy, Norbert Kostner has made Thailand his second home when he visited the country 35 years ago. As Executive Chef in charge of all the gastronomic activities of the historic and legendary Oriental Bangkok “I am very passionate about cooking, whether it is Italian, Thai, French or Chinese. The cuisine I prepare transcends geographical and cultural boundaries because I want everyone to experience the richness and variety of all cuisines while at the same time respecting their authenticity.”

Château Clinet Pomerol 1998

Big and powerful, with lots of olive, brown sugar and jam. Soft and full, with round tannins. A voluptuous and wild wine. Juicy and exotic. Why wait on this full-throttle red. 1998 Wine Spectator - James Suckling - Bordeaux blind retrospective (2008) Drink now 93 Points

Domaine Comte Georges de vogue Chambolle-Musigny 2006

"2006 Chambolle-Musigny ” A more deeply pitched, riper and notably more complex nose that is restrained, cool and positively gorgeous as seemingly all of the spicy elements it projects are perfectly reflected by the textured, concentrated and naturally sweet big-bodied flavours brimming with minerality and buckets of extract that render the firm tannic spine almost invisible on the direct, frank and driving finish that is almost painfully intense and where the floral character of the nose resurfaces. A flat out brilliant wine for this level and best that de Vogüé has ever made."
Allen Meadows, Burghound, 94/100

ENTERTAINMENT - The Bangkok International Big Band was formed in 1999 by Mark Hodgkins, a veteran saxophonist on the Bangkok circuit for nearly two decades. Starting out as a biweekly rehearsal session for the best local and “expat” jazz musicians in Bangkok, it soon developed into much more: the first professional big band jazz ensemble based in Thailand.
