The St. Regis Bangkok
"Few hotel brands are as proud of their own mythology as the 120-year-old St. Regis chain, which has attracted generations of devotees thanks to its signature “rituals”—little touches that can be found across the brand. That’s no different in its elegant Bangkok outpost, where the rituals get a Southeast Asian twist: Take, for instance, the Bloody Mary, which was invented in the original New York location in 1934 and gets an herbaceous kick here from coriander, lemongrass, Thai chili, Thai basil, and wasabi. Or the signature tea, which is served in both the Drawing Room and the St. Regis Bar and might include seasonal delicacies like crispy durian on vol-au-vent or Hotate scallop tartare with coconut and honey. Even sweeter? The views out over the impeccably manicured greens of the Royal Bangkok Sports Club."
