After hearing Turkish Chef Fatih Tutak lament about never coming across any crab dishes in his homeland, I assumed this is is his tribute and celebration of a crustacean he loves. Its name: “Plenty Of Crab In Thailand Hallelujah” cracked me up the moment I saw it but its taste was no laughing matter.
The Turkish-style flavoured deliciousness presented here was of a decadent nature involving plenty of freshly steamed shredded crab meat, crab roe mayo, Wagyu beef tongue pastrami, silky potato cream, shatteringly crisp potato “glass” and savoury dark pearls of Beluga caviar. I love that the sweetness of the crab managed to still remain the most pronounced facet of taste here. Hallelujah indeed.
Honestly, I feel the multi-course “Signature Journey” tasting menu at “The Dining Room” within “The House On Sathorn”, ranked No. 36 on “Asia’s 50 Best Restaurants”, is worth the price of THB 3,400 (before taxes). This works out to be around SGD 140 which is very decent considering the stellar quality and taste of the Modern Turkish cuisine served. They also offer a wine pairing menu at THB 2,400 for those who love to have a drink while they dine.
