il Cielo at Dusit Thani Bangkok (Bangkok, THAILAND) ★★★☆☆

Conveniently situated across the street from the historic Lumpini Park, Dusit Thani Bangkok is home to a luxurious spa and numerous great dining options in the city. After reading all the raving reviews about the hotel's Italian restaurant, il Cielo, we decided to pay them a quick visit.



While the a la carte menu offers a lot more choices at il Cielo, their business lunch set is still the best bargain.



The set lunch features an "all-you-can-eat" antipasti and salad bar with all kinds of seafood, parma ham and seasonal fruit.




For main course, my choice was this pan-fried marinated duck breast served with beans, parma ham and butter spinach.



Another main course was a poached salmon served "medium" with eggplant caviar
aromatic herb salad and citrus confit.



The total damage was only 580 baht per person. Not bad for a meal at a place of this caliber.
