\"Happening<\/a>Bangkok, Thailand, September 16, 2024 \/ TRAVELINDEX \/ Crowning Thailand\u2019s first INNSiDE hotel, sky-high LUZ Bangkok Tapas Bar is marking its first anniversary with a vibrant new menu that applies a novel twist to classic Spanish dishes.<\/p>\n

Crafted by INNSiDE by Meli\u00e1\u00a0Bangkok Sukhumvit\u2019s Spanish Chef de Cuisine, Madrid-born Juan Ignacio Garc\u00eda Racionero, who has honed his craft in some of Spain\u2019s top kitchens, the menu takes diners on a culinary crusade through Spain, with a dynamic variety of local Thai ingredients in the mix too.<\/p>\n

Commanding the hotel\u2019s two upper-most floors, the 33rd<\/sup> and 34th<\/sup> levels, with panoramic views of the Bangkok skyline, LUZ has quickly gained a reputation as \u201cthe place to be\u201d since its September 15, 2023 debut. LUZ offers authentic Spanish tapas, wines, beer on tap, cocktails, signature sangrias, spirits, mocktails, spirits and more. In a spectacle unlike any other in Bangkok, diners on the 33rd<\/sup> floor peer into the bottom of the hotel\u2019s 34th<\/sup> floor infinity pool.<\/p>\n

\u2018Gilda de Pulpo’ grilled octopus, olives, pickled paprika and olive oil, \u2018Sardine Ahumada Con Lima\u2019 smoked sardine with lime and avocado cream, \u2018Gambas Al Ajillo\u2019 sauteed prawns with chilli, garlic and olive oil, and \u2018Ensalada De Salmorejo Burrata\u2019 burrata with cold tomato creamy soup, anchovy and avocado are among \u2018LUZ Tapas\u2019 highlights.<\/p>\n

Dishes already proving popular in the \u2018Chef\u2019s Tapas Selection\u2019 include \u2018LUZ Salmon\u2019 Norwegian salmon with mango-passionfruit dressing and \u2018Tuna Taki Taki Rumba\u2019 Akani tuna with citrus dressing. \u2018LUZ Signature\u2019 delights include \u2018Carrilleras de Cerdo Iberico\u2019 braised Iberian pork cheek with carrots and cumin puree, \u2018Pulpo a la Parrilla\u2019 grilled octopus with paprika mashed potatoes and mango, and \u2018Entrecot de \u2018Ribeye\u2019\u2019 300g Australian ribeye steak with layered potatoes and salsa de carne.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am inspired to bring authentic Spanish flavours to the forefront and celebrate my native Spain\u2019s rich culinary heritage, all the while applying a novel twist to enhance the new menu\u2019s appeal to the local palate,\u201d Racionero said. \u201cOne of my favourite dishes is our \u2018Pulpo a la Parrilla\u2019. The addition of mango, chilli and smoked paprika pur\u00e9e creates a contrast of sweet, salty, and spicy flavours, offering a fresh take on the traditional Spanish recipe. Mango and chilli cater to the local palate and add unique flavours to the classic ingredients; all while staying true to the dish\u2019s Spanish roots.\u201d<\/p>\n

Before joining INNSiDE by Meli\u00e1\u00a0Bangkok Sukhumvit, the Madrid-born chef worked at one Michelin-starred Saddle as well as Diverxo, recognized in the top three \u2018World\u2019s 50 Best Restaurants\u2019 in 2023, and acclaimed restaurants El Jardin De La Marquina and Montellen.<\/p>\n

On September 15, diners at LUZ had the chance to win dinner and drinks for two. Guests were encouraged to snap the best shots at a special photo prop at LUZ and enjoy a glass of LUZ\u2019s signature sangria and a Wagyu with chorizo and roasted red pepper LUZ Slider. After participants post their shots publicly on their social media, follow @luzbangkok_tapasbar and tag #LUZBangkok1stAniversario, the winner will be announced at the end of September.<\/p>\n

By night the hotel\u2019s 34th<\/sup> floor, featuring a pool bar, transparent infinity pool, and rooftop terrace dotted with outdoor lounges, sunbeds and a compelling contemporary interpretation of Bangkok\u2019s Brahman structure The Giant Swing, all become an upper-floor extension of 33rd<\/sup> floor LUZ Bangkok Tapas Bar. The 33rd<\/sup> tapas bar\u2019s design, including its striking angled lines and cabling, pay tribute to another iconic Bangkok landmark, Rama VIII Bridge.<\/p>\n

LUZ is open daily from 4pm until midnight.<\/p>\n
