Thai Airways International (THAI) in cooperation with Lebua Hotels and Resorts has launched chef endorsement menu prepared by Michelin star chef from Chef’s Table restaurant at Lebua Hotels and Resorts.

The classic French menu will be served to royal first class passengers on Bangkok-London route and royal silk class passengers on flights from Bangkok to London, Frankfurt, Munich, Paris and Zurich from July to August 2019.

Sudhiratr Siriplanond, acting vice president, in-flight services department, THAI said the chef endorsement menu project was launched through cooperation between THAI and Lebua Hotels and Resorts with the well-known three-Michelin-star chef Vincent Thierry creating a classic French menu with authentic French flavours to serve on board THAI flights.

Chef Vincent Thierry selects the best organic ingredients by adhering to the 80/20 theory, meaning 80% of the ingredients are local produce and 20% are imported premium raw materials which cannot be found in Thailand.

The cooperation between THAI and Lebua Hotels on this chef endorsement menu started in 2018.  Due to its popularity and positive feedback from passengers, the project was repeated this year to further enhance customers’ satisfaction and experience when flying THAI.
