Thai Lao Yeh by Cabochon Hotel

CABOCHON HOTEL is a unique boutique hotel boasting only 4 Suites and 4 Studios. The fade of this elegant four-story building and its ivory colored windows; exquisite balconies, and elegant columns festooned with artistic patterns and motifs is architecturally distinct from its immediate environs. It has been conceptualized to recreate the Shanghai chic of the 1920s for which that city reigned supreme in the Orient and was also famous for its modernity and aesthetics after the Parisian and Viennese styles.

---------------

Thai Lao Yeh Restaurant featuring ever-popular Thai cuisine and introducing the less well-known Chiang-mai, E-San, and Laotian fares. The name although descriptive of Thai and Lao cuisines is also a clever pun of words, which in the Chinese Mandarin vernacular could also mean The Grand Old Man Restaurant, the play here being on the designers family name. To give patrons the atmosphere of ancient Siam and a touch of nostalgia and visual aesthetics, the wall panels of the restaurant are crafted from 100-year old timber salvaged from a Thai village and painstakingly and expertly turned. The result is awe-inspiring and breathtaking.
