Review: Bistrot De La Mer @ Sindhorn Kempinski

This French restaurant, located inside the hotel, offers à la carte dining for dinner, while lunch features excellent value 2-3 course set menus.

Welcome Bread The meal began with pumpkin bread, soft and fluffy and a perfectly crusty baguette, served with rich and fragrant Isigny (AOP) butter. A delightful start.

This lunch set is truly worth it! The food was absolutely delicious, from the starter to the main course. • Yellowtail Tuna with Hazelnut Sauce – Very fresh and flavorful. • King Salmon Fillet with Fregola Sarda Pasta – So yummy! • Kurobuta Pork Stroganoff – Wonderfully tender, and the pickled apple perfectly balances the richness. • Sweet Corn Velouté – Smooth and well-rounded in flavor.
