The Shangri-La Hotel’s institutional Chinese restaurant remains a gold standard for tantalizing dim sum bites (the crispy Thai mango and prawn spring rolls ia must) and Cantonese fare in Bangkok and for good reason. You really can’t go wrong with anything on the menu, from chef-recommended scallops with truffles and asparagus to the all-time favorite oatmeal prawns with salted egg. Even the desserts—from the egg tarts to the chilled sago with cantaloupe cream—though simple, are above par.
