Mandarin Oriental, Bangkok welcomes a new era of culinary excellence
Bangkok, 1 September 2025 – Bangkok’s most celebrated dining room enters a bold new era this September as Le Normandie reopens on 20 September 2025 under Anne-Sophie Pic, the world’s most Michelin-starred female chef. The iconic restaurant, a reference for French cuisine since 1958, now begins an exciting chapter that combines its heritage with Chef Pic’s distinctive artistry.
This is Anne- Sophie Pic’s first and only restaurant in Thailand, introducing her signature culinary philosophy to one of Bangkok’s most storied dining rooms on the banks of the Chao Phraya River. Expect emotion-led cuisine – delicately layered flavours, unexpected pairings, and a delicate refinement that defines her style. Guided by her philosophy, Suffusion, each dish creates harmony between ingredients through aromatic connections, for a dining experience that feels intimate yet inventive.
“I believe cuisine is a universal language – a space where cultures meet,” said Anne-Sophie Pic. “Opening a new chapter at Mandarin Oriental, Bangkok, an icon of elegance and refinement, is a thrilling adventure. I look forward to creating an experience where French gastronomy engages in a dialogue with the vibrant energy of Thai culture.”
With three Michelin stars at her flagship restaurant, Maison Pic in Valence, and accolades including Best Restaurant in the World by Tripadvisor in the Best 2024 Ranking, Chef Pic brings unmatched creativity to Bangkok’s culinary stage – a natural fit for Mandarin Oriental’s tradition of excellence.
The restaurant itself has been completely reimagined by Humbert & Poyet, blending the restaurant’s iconic charm and elegance with a fresh contemporary aesthetic.
Anne-Sophie Pic at Le Normandie opens on 20 September 2025. Reservations are now open for this milestone moment in Bangkok’s dining scene.
