The Okura Prestige Bangkok’s Elements Restaurant Receives Michelin Star

The management of The Okura Prestige Bangkok is pleased to announce that the hotel’s Elements restaurant has been awarded a Michelin Star in the inaugural Bangkok edition of the famous fine dining guidebook.

Under the stewardship of Executive Chef Antony Scholtmeyer, Elements has developed a reputation for serving finely prepared gourmet French cuisine with seasonal Japanese influences. The restaurant’s wide selection of à la carte dishes is refreshed regularly to take full advantage of the freshest available produce from Thailand and carefully selected international markets.

Commenting on the award, Mr Edward E. Snoeks, General Manager of The Okura Prestige Bangkok, said, “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. 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.”

One of only 17 Bangkok restaurants to receive a Michelin star, Elements represents new generation lifestyle dining where East meets West with classic ease. The restaurant provides outstanding cuisine in a relaxed and informal atmosphere with the added attraction of an open kitchen. The open kitchen gives diners an ‘up close and personal’ feel for the skills and expertise of the chefs, creating culinary theatre at the very heart of the restaurant.

“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,” said Chef Antony. “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.”

Elements is open for dinner from 6 p.m. - 10:30 p.m. on Tuesday - Saturday.
