Axis & Spin

2/6/2015

The Continent Hotel's top floor bar and restaurant is one of Asok's best kept dining secrets
A SHORT walk from Asok BTS station sits one of the best value rooftop dining experiences in town. Steaks, ribs, gourmet salads, a superb view, and a long list of classic and creative cocktails – Axis & Spin has it all. With a DJ spinning chilled out tunes every night from 8pm, it also has a cracking atmosphere – the perfect starting point for a night on the town.

Set over two-floors connected by a spiral staircase, Axis & Spin started life as simply a trendy bar serving a small selection of dishes from The Continent Hotel's popular Italian restaurant, Medinii. But at the beginning of this year the venue was retooled to have a greater emphasis on food, and it now has its own menu featuring European and American comfort food, plus a selection of pastas and pizzas given an Asian twist. And it's well worth discovering.

Sink into a couch on Axis & Spin's lounge-inspired first floor, admiring the view through floor-to-ceiling windows, or grab a high table on the second floor, which is air-conditioned yet open to the elements at the front, and kick-start your meal with a tongue-zinging starter like the Spicy Norwegian salmon salad (B320++), which sees the diced fish served atop an upturned glass. Tip this over to expose the leaves, and then mix the lot with the accompanying (not for the faint hearted!) seafood sauce.
    
Continuing in the same spicy vein, opt for Axis & Spin's signature Black ink spaghetti with meatballs in a spicy tomato sauce (B370++). Flavour-packed and moreish, this is fusion cuisine at its best – and a good option for sharing if you want to leave room for other dishes on the menu.
    
There are plenty of hearty highlights to sink your teeth into, too, including the Classic slow-grilled BBQ pork spare ribs with French fries, which comes served on a chopping board and boasts wonderfully tender meat drizzled with a sweet and slightly spicy barbecue sauce (B350++); the Grilled Australian grain fed beef tenderloin, cooked to perfection and served with pan seared foie gras, seasonal mixed vegetables, homemade wedges and jus (B1,150++); and Norwegian salmon baked with honey mi-so sauce (B520++).
    
Other popular options include Fish and chips with tartar sauce served with mixed salad (B320++); Black mussels in white wine garlic sauce served with homemade garlic bread (B370++); and Wagyu beef burger on charcoal bun (B390++).
    
Continuing the great value at Axis & Spin is a daily 'Sky Dining' promotion (4pm-close), which offers a choice of main course and dessert, plus unlimited soft drinks, beer, wine, and cocktails, for just B999++ per person. What's more, every Wednesday night is ladies' night, with free drinks for the girls from 8.30pm-Midnight.
    
Cocktails at Axis & Spin start at just B280++, beers at B230++, and wines at B350++ per glass.
