The "Exquisite Thai Cuisine" program at the Sheraton Hanoi Hotel.

Not only is Thailand known as a popular tourist destination, but it also makes its mark with its rich cuisine – a blend of cultures from neighboring countries such as India, Indonesia, Myanmar, and China. Thai cuisine exudes a sophisticated blend of herbs, spices, and fresh ingredients, creating a unique and distinctive culinary style refined over centuries.

When it comes to Thai food, everyone is sure to be impressed by the incredibly attractive and eye-catching colors of the dishes, thanks to the vibrant hues of vegetables and fruits. The red of chili peppers, the yellow of turmeric, the deep red of beetroot, the green of pandan leaves, and other vegetables and fruits… The characteristic flavor is rich and savory, a harmonious blend of sour, salty, sweet, and especially spicy. Although the dishes are seasoned with many hot spices, the combination with various vegetables and fruits creates a unique and appealing harmony, and is nutritious due to its low fat content.

For the most part, the aroma of lemongrass and lime is indispensable in Thai dishes; it seems to be a gift from nature that the Thai people have skillfully utilized to both enhance flavor and balance the nutritional content of their food.

With the aim of bringing high-end and authentic Thai cuisine to diners in Hanoi, Sheraton Hanoi Hotel is honored to have invited native chef Montri Jiratitikankit, with over 17 years of talent and experience, and Sous Chef Kanarat Sukyai from the renowned Bangkok hotel, The Athénée Hotel, a Luxury Collection Hotel, to serve our esteemed guests. Chef Montri has extensive experience working in Thai restaurants around the world. He and his team have also received numerous prestigious awards, including Best Restaurant in Bangkok in 2007, Best Thai Restaurant in Roseville, California, USA in 2016… And recently, he has been in charge of the Thai cuisine at Smooth Curry restaurant, the 5-star The Athénée Hotel.

The culinary feast will begin with Chor Muang, a charming traditional Thai rice flour dumpling filled with savory meat, as an appetizer, followed by Tom Yum Goong, a familiar dish to Vietnamese diners for its sour, spicy, and creamy coconut milk sauce combined with aromatic herbs, creating an unforgettable flavor. Don't forget to visit the open kitchen to enjoy fragrant grilled meats marinated in various sauces for a truly unique taste, or savor a bowl of aromatic curry. Notably, Chef Montri will personally bring Thai curry ingredients from Bangkok to prepare the main courses, satisfying even the most discerning diners. To conclude your culinary experience, try sweet and signature desserts such as mango sticky rice, pumpkin egg tart, and authentic Thai pandan leaf dessert.
