OUR PHILOSOPHY
ThaiSoul restaurant is an innovative concept combining the tranquility of the Thai lifestyle with the purest organic Thai food. Products are sourced from the best organic growers and markets of Thailand where local residents visit to purchase the freshest and the best local produce.
The interior of the restaurant will maintain a feeling of a traditional and elegant Thai home where you will feel the meaning of “ThaiSoul”. The center point of the restaurant will be an open kitchen, equipped with both traditional Thai and modern cooking implements. The kitchen will be open to the guest seating area so that the chef has direct contact with the guest enabling him and the house lifestyle advisor, to create an individual menu composition for the guest. Diners will feel as though they are guests in a family home. The kitchen is also designed to facilitate cooking classes.
The menu that will be explained and presented by the lifestyle advisor will be a selection of the produce on display. The personalized service will enhance the originality of the concept and will also create an atmosphere of conviviality. The restaurant and terrace will have an old fashioned but comfortable set up with local tables and chairs inside the restaurant and the terrace will be furnished with day beds under pergolas covered with Thai fabrics. Ambient music will be piped into the dining areas to enhance the mood.
Exclusive and fine organic wines will be available, as well as organic waters from around the world. Coffee, tea and all other drinks will be organic based products. Professional chefs and lifestyle advisors will also suggest the accompanying wine/drink to the individually created menu. One very important credo of ThaiSoul is that organic doesn’t mean you have to sacrifice on luxury and lifestyle.
The dining room will have a capacity of 45 covers, surrounded by floor to ceiling sliding door panels which will lead onto an expansive 25 seat terrace. This terrace will reward with captivating views of the sea, the island and its jungle interior.
ThaiSoul restaurant can be reached via a path way from all main areas of the Island or with a buggy from the residential and hotel villas section. Outsiders can access the restaurant from the island’s main welcome pier.

Preparation techniques typical for Thai cuisine will be individually featured in the kitchen. The chef together with the lifestyle advisor will recommend different preparation styles representing the culinary variety of the Thai cuisine. Food has to be authentic but original which keeps the door open for some creative interpretation of classic Thai food.
