Bangkok Marriott Marquis Queen’s Park spreads its latest seasonal push across two restaurants built around ingredients that already do most of the convincing themselves. At Pagoda Chinese Restaurant, Kagoshima A5 wagyu lands in Sichuan-style broths, Hong Kong-style clear soup, stir-fries and a wagyu pie with abalone that knows exactly how excessive it sounds. Upstairs at Akira Back Bangkok, Ora King salmon threads through pizzas, tartare, sashimi and robata skewers glazed with citrus miso. It is polished hotel dining, but not in a stiff kind of celebration where someone inevitably orders another bottle.
Now until June 30. Pagoda Chinese Restaurant and Akira Back Bangkok, Bangkok Marriott Marquis Queen’s Park. Pagoda lunch 11.30am-2.30pm, dinner 6pm-10pm. Akira Back lunch Thursday-Sunday 12pm-2.30pm, dinner daily 5.30pm-11pm
