Guest Chef RICHARD SAWYER
The 9th Floor continues its ‘Chefs Without Kitchens’ promotion to counter the Covid Blues!
Like Picasso without a paint-brush or Shakespeare bereft of his beloved quill, a master chef without a kitchen in which to work his culinary magic is a sorry sight indeed. But fear not, the ever-resourceful and innovative 9th Floor Restaurant and Bar in Patong is counteracting these trying times with a series of ‘Chefs Without Kitchens’ promotions in which they showcase some of Thailand’s foremost culinary masters doing what they do best…………. making us all laugh and enjoy ourselves again with magical cuisine and shared fun times.
Each month, the famous 9th Floor Restaurant situated in the heart of Patong brings in a top, Thailand-based chef, to prepare a fabulous menu and showcase their magical talents.
The choice of these top chefs features both those currently without work, as well as those stranded at home because their normal kitchen is closed, even though they may still be employed.
