Michelin-starred J’AIME by Jean-Michel Lorain at U Sathorn Bangkok expands with whole new level of brilliance over flavors, techniques with modern influences by chef Nicolas Keller at the helm.
During this era, their tasting menus also began to emphasize presentation and aesthetics. The experience is wonderfully elaborate and pleasing to the palate. The Origine Menu (priced at THB$3,500++) incorporates citrus pearls that complement the cauliflower cream on the special oyster, fully escalating its flavor profile.
With his meticulous attention to detail and emphasis on quality ingredients, Nicolas brings up the culinary excellence with modern touch. The distinctive flavors of the cranberry Mille-feuille and tangy tartlet offer a versatile taste profile that beautifully complements the foie gras. This dish is aromatic, creamy, and citrusy all at once.
Once more, Nicolas demonstrated mastery in sauce creation. The fresh scallops with sancho pepper and mushrooms were beautifully delicate, colorful, and delicious. This dish quickly became one of my favorite highlights.
J’AIME by Jean-Michel Lorain, Bangkok does not forget the original roots of French cuisine. The restaurant holds a passionate affair with their cheese and bread. For a delightful conclusion, their desserts promise a unique sensory experience. Be sure to try Michel Lorain’s signature Mille-feuille and other tempting sweets.
