“Elemental”, our dear Michelin

There’s plenty of cause for celebration over at the Okura Prestige Bangkok’s Elements restaurant following the announcement that it has earned one star from the inaugural edition of the Michelin Guide Bangkok.

 

Under the stewardship of executive chef Antony Scholtmeyer, Elements has developed a reputation for its finely prepared gourmet French cuisine with seasonal Japanese influences. Offering a wide selection of a la carte dishes, it takes full advantage of the freshest available produce from Thailand and carefully selected international markets.

 

“Receiving a Michelin star is a great honour for Chef Antony and his team. It is the culmination of a fantastic 12 months for Elements, which began with the restaurant placing in the top 5 of the country’s 10 best eateries in Thailand Tatler’s Best Restaurant Guide 2017. Indeed, Elements is no stranger to the Michelin organisation and is a popular venue for chefs of international renown,” said Edward E. Snoeks, general manager of The Okura Prestige Bangkok.

 

“Over the past four years the restaurant has welcomed leading Michelin-starred chefs from some of Europe’s top restaurants. It is fantastic that we now have a star of our own! To be part of the first Michelin Guide Bangkok is an affirmation of the skill and commitment of Chef Antony and his team in delivering dishes of a consistently high quality.”

 

As one of 17 Bangkok restaurants to receive a Michelin star, Elements represents new generation lifestyle dining where east meets west with classic ease. Its open kitchen provides outstanding cuisine in a relaxed and informal atmosphere, giving diners an up close and personal glimpse culinary theatre.

 

“Earning a Michelin star is a wonderful accolade for Elements and a testament to the hard work of our culinary team and front-of-house staff,” Scholtmeyer added, “We take pride in what we do and pleasure in satisfying our guests with an innovative dining experience. To receive a Michelin star makes the process of creating good food all the more rewarding.”
