European fare is quickly gaining traction in Bangkok — from trendy trattorias to chic cafes, there’s something to suit every taste in the city. Adding to the already impressive medley of restaurants in the city is The Allium, a gorgeous French spot serving up fine cuisine with a contemporary flair. Decked in royal red and white, the restaurant presents a modern take on the opulent dining rooms of 19th Century France. What’s more, it’s located on the grounds of the Kandhavas Palace, the former residence of the late Princess Valaya Alongkorn.

Famed Dutch chef Roxanne Lange, who cut her teeth working at Michelin-star restaurants all over Europe, expertly leads her team of skilled chefs to cook some of the most delicious French food in town. There are menu items with a Thai influence too, like the tangy Chiang Mai Tomato Salad, a perfect pick-me-up on a sweltering hot day. Be sure to try the Duck Liver and Apple, a unique combination of smooth, fatty duck liver and crunchy sweet apple. A delightful mix of textures and flavours, this dish is sure to delight. (Dec 20)
