InterContinental Bangkok Fireplace Grill news: the five-star hotel’s storied restaurant has introduced a revamped menu starting from 10 June 2024 onwards. Complementing its renowned selection of meats with seafood dishes, the spread also pays homage to the restaurant’s most beloved offerings – the heritage series.

Since 1966, Fireplace Grill and Bar has been garnering a reputation as a premier dining destination for Bangkok epicureans seeking quality cuisine inspired by the traditions of Europe. For generations, the restaurant has been known for its array of exceptional ingredients, from top-shelf Australian beef to fresh lobster from Nova Scotia.

Through a revitalised menu, the restaurant is further refining its most enticing aspects, balancing its premium international meats with equally excellent seafood.

The harmony begins with new starters that include Seared Foie Gras and Scottish Brown Crab. From there, chilled seafood like Kaviari Oscietra Prestige Caviar and Akami Tuna present novel ways to savour the ocean. Rounding out the section are Butter Roasted Canadian Lobster, Pan-Fried Toothfish and Sicilian Red Prawns in a tagliolini.

These are matched in the steak selection with prime choices from Japan, the United States and Australia. Main course choices of Charcoal Half Baby Chicken and Australian Lamb Rack further uplift the revitalised menu.

Bridging the restaurant’s present and past are heritage dishes representing a tradition of culinary excellence. These choices reinforce the menu with a cherished legacy.

Experience Fireplace Grill and Bar as it has been since day one by starting with Escargots a la Bourguignonne or an authentic French Onion Soup. For seafood, the Prawn Cocktail refreshes while line-caught Dover Sole pairs deliciously with sautéed broccolini and garlic oil. Long favoured by gourmets, the Tournedos Veal Rossini, stands alongside mainstay steaks Stockyard Prime Rib and Stanbroke Sanchoku Wagyu Striploin. A classic of the restaurant and of French dining, the heritage dessert spot is filled by Crêpes Suzette.

New or time-honoured, every dish at Fireplace Grill and Bar is served in a setting that is as comfortable as it is refined. Sit in the main area for a view into the dynamic live kitchen at the centre of the restaurant or enjoy a quieter setting in the two private rooms available. In either arrangement, unique table side service adds to the experience. Accentuating the grandeur of each meal, these culinary performances showcase the years of mastery among the restaurant’s staff.

Alongside the renewed menu is a wine list of over 240 labels encompassing family-owned vineyards and well-known estates. Crafted cocktails are also ready to be sipped while enjoying the live jazz performed of Coco LaShaun each Thursday evening.

Bringing together fondly familiar and rousingly recent, Fireplace Grill and Bar’s updated menu continues its finest traditions. Experience excellent European-inspired dining with friends, business associates and family.

The hotel dining venue is conveniently located on the Ground level of InterContinental Bangkok with access direct from the hotel entrance.
