The foodie destination of Kimpton Maa-Lai Bangkok welcomes guests and patrons to experience a world of authentic cuisines, spotlighting rare seasonal ingredients.

 Life’s best moments often involve finger-licking good food. Kimpton Maa-Lai Bangkok understands exactly that, so the urban lifestyle hotel seizes the opportunity to transform delectable seasonal ingredients into irresistible creations that are both stunning for the snapshots and comforting for the soul. Ms.Jigger unveils traditional Italian recipes made with cured fish baccalà, Tuscan white asparagus, premium ciccia beef. And Bar.Yard teases with taco Tuesdays, paella Sundays and barbecue every day.        
​
The Salted Fish Star: Baccalà on 1st – 11th March 2021
Baccalà is a sacrosanct staple on southern Italian tables. Ms.Jigger features this celebrated fish in variety of ways. Slow cooked at a low temperature and topped with black truffles, the baccalà confit (THB 790++) makes a charming starter. The baccalà mantecato (THB 790++) highlights the fish in a whipped, mousse-like texture. While the handcrafted baccalà ravioli (THB 850++) nestles in a warm tomato napolitana sauce, the baccalà Naples-style (THB 890++) rests the flaky fish in a tomato broth with Taggiasche olives. Every dish is like a trip to the shores of Venice.

RCB Film Club: Degas: Passion for Perfection

22/2/2021

Running Time: 91 minutes
Subtitle: Thai
Directed by David Bickerstaff, the documentary is an exploration of the French impressionist artist Edgar Degas, featuring a superb exhibition at The Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, where the UK’s most extensive Degas collection is held, and traveling to Paris and Italy where Degas spent his formative years and taught himself to paint.
‘Degas: Passion for Perfection’ offers a unique insight into Degas’ personal and creative life, looking at his relationship with the impressionist movement, fascination with dance, and struggle with his eyesight, which in time would prevent him making art altogether. 

The film uncovers Degas’ obsessive pursuit for perfection both through experimentation with new techniques and the study of past masters, including Italian Renaissance artists and near-contemporaries such as Ingres and Delacroix. French historian Daniel Halévy describes the artist as: “Always working, searching, almost always dissatisfied, he kept the greater part his art hidden in boxes out of which he scarcely ever took anything...except what he was forced to sell to enable him to live.” 

​Degas also created a great number of statuettes but never let them go further than wax or clay, explaining that he couldn’t leave anything behind him in bronze because “metal was for eternity”.
The art dealer Ambroise Vollard recounted how Degas showed him a dancer he had created for the twentieth time, and exclaimed: "I wouldn't take a bucket of gold for the pleasure I had in destroying it and beginning over again." Upon his death in 1917, more than 150 sculptures were found in his studio, made from wax, clay and plasticine. Of those that survived, The Fitzwilliam Museum is the only establishment in the UK to hold examples of these rare and extremely fragile works.
Along with close-up views of Degas’ work, written accounts by friends and commentators and letters by Degas himself reveal the complex inner workings of one of France’s most influential artists.
Phil Grabsky, Executive Producer of EXHIBITION ON SCREEN, comments: “Edgar Degas is one of the greats of modern art and yet is little known apart from his paintings of young ballet dancers, and certainly often misunderstood. For his contemporaries he was a giant – but a giant that preferred to stay in the shadows.”
David Bickerstaff, Director of Degas: Passion for Perfection, comments: “Considered by many to be one of the greatest draughtsmen of all time, Degas enthrals us with his views of the everyday - cafe life, horse racing, ballet dancers, family portraits and intimate female nudes. Highly regarded by other artists, Degas’ influence spans a seismic shift in art history which marked the arrival of Impressionism and a new modernism.”
Dates: Saturday 13, 27 March 2021 at 2pm
Venue: RCB Forum, 2nd floor River City Bangkok

Best Western Hotels & Resorts is celebrating two decades of professional excellence in Asia, as it marks the 20th anniversary of the launch of its first regional office in Bangkok, Thailand, when it was an emerging travel destination.
 
This historic US-based hotel group anticipated the onset of the “Asian Century” as it embarked on an international strategy to serve the region’s most important and attractive markets. In 2001, the first Best Western Hotels & Resorts Asia office was established at All Seasons Place in the heart of Bangkok, overseeing an initial portfolio of six hotels in four countries: Indonesia, The Philippines, Thailand and Vietnam.
 
In 20 successful years since this major milestone, Best Western Hotels & Resorts’ expanded Bangkok office – which relocated to the prestigious Gaysorn Place in 2007 – now supports a regional portfolio of world-class hotels and resorts in eight countries, including  Indonesia, Japan, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, The Philippines, Thailand and Vietnam, with additional hotels in the pipeline, covering a wide range of exciting urban centers, up-and-coming cities and idyllic leisure destinations.
