Summer Delicacies at Anantara Chiang Mai Resort - TRAVELINDEXChiang Mai, Thailand, March 29, 2025 / TRAVELINDEX / Anantara Chiang Mai Resort’s Bodhi Terrace unveils its new summer menu with traditional khao chae, pla haeng tangmo, som chun and a chef special of khao chae ice-cream.

As the hottest months of the year approach, Thais have traditionally retreated into the comfort of cool, whether splashing in water or consuming iced foods and drinks that bring welcome respite.

Khao chae is one of these foods, beloved and royal, and now available at Anantara Chiang Mai Resort’s Bodhi Terrace, the perfect setting for a leisurely summer meal as guests enjoy a cool breeze off the Mae Ping River and the shade of its namesake bodhi tree.

Khao chae originated from Thailand’s Mon population, and was then made popular in the palace of King Rama II. It is prepared by soaking rice in fragrant jasmine water, which is then served iced. Accompanying are a traditional set of bites such as shrimp-paste balls, the perfect combination of sweet and savoury, and stuffed sweet pepper with an artful lattice egg wrap. A selection of raw vegetables, mango and chilli add an extra layer of refreshment.

To accompany their traditional khao chae set, Anantara guests may also enjoy a starter of pla haeng tangmo, watermelon cubes gently dusted with fish floss, then follow their meal with som chun, in-season mandarin and lychee soaked in iced jasmine-pandan syrup and topped with green mango, young ginger and bitter orange. The most adventurous, meanwhile, will enjoy the chef’s special of jasmine rice ice-cream topped with “khao chae condiments” of dried fish cookies, candied sweet peppers and fried salted egg.

The Bodhi Terrace kitchen is helmed by Chef Natruthai Petsuwan, with authentic northern Thai cuisine as well as specialities from her native south on offer. Highlights include the khao soi with river prawn, and slow-braised pork belly with star anise and cinnamon. Guests can also learn to recreate their favourite dishes with Chef Natruthai in a Spice Spoons cooking class, a signature Anantara offering.

Bodhi Terrace’s summer delicacies are available throughout the months of April and May for both lunch and dinner. For reservations or more information, call +66 53 253 333

The Lotus Unfolds at Mandarin Oriental Bangkok

By:

The Lotus Unfolds at Mandarin Oriental Bangkok - TRAVELINDEXBangkok, Thailand, March 20, 2025 / TRAVELINDEX / As the only hotel in Bangkok featured in The White Lotus Season 3, Mandarin Oriental, Bangkok invites guests to follow the trail, find the bloom, and step into the story of the city’s most iconic riverside retreat.

In The White Lotus Season 3, Mandarin Oriental, Bangkok takes its place in cinematic history as the only Bangkok hotel featured in the series. A beacon of timeless elegance and rich heritage, this riverside icon became an integral part of the story, effortlessly blending into its world of mystery, beauty, and quiet luxury.

Anthony Tyler, Area Vice President, Operations and General Manager, reveals, “When Mike White arrived at the hotel during his recent visit, the first thing he said was, ‘I’m home.’ That speaks to the enduring magic of Mandarin Oriental, Bangkok. For nearly 150 years, we have welcomed luminaries – writers like Somerset Maugham, Joseph Conrad, and John le Carré, as well as contemporary figures such as Pico Iyer, V.S. Naipaul, and Paul Theroux. To now be part of The White Lotus is truly special, and we look forward to welcoming guests to experience this extraordinary destination for themselves.”

The Lotus Unfolds at Mandarin Oriental Bangkok

From tranquil mornings at The Verandah – where the striking Thai mural that captivated creator Mike White resides – to the jazz-infused ambience of The Bamboo Bar, every space within the hotel tells a story. The fabled Authors’ Lounge became a place of reflection and inspiration as White crafted the season’s narrative, while the grand lobby and exquisite suites welcomed cast and crew, enveloping them in the hotel’s heritage.

A Cinematic Journey with ‘The Lotus Unfolds’ Stay Package
Inspired by the series, Mandarin Oriental, Bangkok presents The Lotus Unfolds stay package, offering an immersive experience that brings The White Lotus to life. From the moment they arrive, guests will be welcomed by Khun Mayuree, Guest Relations Director by day and perhaps a familiar face in Season 3. A cherished presence at Mandarin Oriental, Bangkok for over 35 years, Khun Mayuree’s intuitive service has long been woven into the hotel’s legacy. Her warmth and hospitality have left a lasting impression on countless guests – and may even be recognised beyond the hotel’s storied walls.

As part of this experience, guests will enjoy exclusive series-inspired welcome amenities, while the enchanting views of the Chao Phraya River set the stage for an unforgettable stay. Breakfast at The Verandah offers the opportunity to admire the hand-painted mural that sparked White’s imagination during his initial visit to the hotel in January 2023. Spanning 17 metres, this remarkable artwork by local artists was created using traditional temple techniques, incorporating indigenous flora and fauna into its design. White was so taken by it that he paused to capture several photographs for inspiration. Beyond The Verandah mural, the hotel’s artistic heritage continued to inspire him. His favourite suite, the Jim Thompson, features another striking mural depicting Thai life over 700 years ago. It was in this suite, as well as in The Authors’ Lounge, that he immersed himself in the creative process, refining the narrative that would shape Season 3.

The Lotus Unfolds at Mandarin Oriental Bangkok

“When we first saw the introduction of The White Lotus Season 3, featuring a mysterious Thai mural, it immediately brought me back to that moment,” adds Anthony Tyler. “It brings us great pleasure to think that our hotel may have inspired and delighted him throughout the writing process.”

A Journey Through Bangkok’s Hidden Narratives
As part of The Lotus Unfolds package, guests will embark on a specially curated excursion through Bangkok’s historic districts, discovering the hidden stories and cultural richness that set the stage for the series. From learning the delicate art of lotus folding to tracing enigmatic figures from the show’s opening sequence within intricate murals, this immersive journey unveils the city’s layers of history, artistry, and intrigue, offering a unique perspective on Bangkok’s enduring charm.

After a day of exploration, guests can retreat to The Authors’ Lounge – long a sanctuary for literary greats, now woven into cinematic history. It was here that White found inspiration for Season 3, his portrait now joining the ranks of celebrated writers who have shaped their stories within these walls.

As evening falls, The Bamboo Bar – Bangkok’s most legendary jazz venue – awaits. Featured in the series, this storied establishment invites guests to experience a moment of effortless glamour, sipping the White Lotus cocktail, created exclusively for the occasion. Infused with the timeless elegance of the bar’s 1950s ambience, this signature drink is available to both hotel guests and visitors.

The Lotus Unfolds Package Includes:
• Two-night stay in a preferred accommodation
• Daily breakfast at The Verandah, home to the mural that inspired Mike White
• Exclusive The Lotus Unfolds welcome amenities
• Private The Lotus Unfolds excursion through Bangkok’s historic districts
• Afternoon Tea at The Authors’ Lounge
• Signature White Lotus cocktail, served in-room

While The White Lotus shines a spotlight on Mandarin Oriental, Bangkok’s timeless allure, guests can step beyond the screen and immerse themselves in its legendary hospitality. From exceptional dining experiences to The Oriental Spa – where centuries-old wellness traditions meet contemporary expertise – every stay is a seamless blend of heritage, elegance, and personalised service.
