Frommer's Review

The ultra-elegant Normandie, atop the renowned Oriental Hotel, with panoramic views of Thonburi and the Chao Phraya River, is the apex in formal dining in Thailand, both in price and quality. The room glistens in gold and silver, from place settings to chandeliers, and the warm tones of golden silks impart a delicious glow. Some of the highest rated master chefs from France have made guest appearances at Normandie, adding their own unique touches to the menu. The menu features a limited selection of daily specials, with classic selections such as pan-fried goose liver, followed by a pan-fried turbot with potato and leek in a parsley sauce. The beef filet main course, in a red wine sauce, is divine. The set also includes cheese, coffee, and a sinful dessert. Order any wine you can imagine from their extensive list.
