THAI food is one of the most popular cuisines in the world. Whether mild or spicy, sweet or sour, the tantalizing aromas of the cuisine are part of the fascinating cultural life of Thailand. Four Points by Sheraton Shenzhen is excited to provide Thai gourmet lovers an excellent opportunity to broaden their culinary experience at the monthlong Thai Food Festival.

    Guest Thai chef Somwong will prepare authentic Thai cuisine for diners during the hotel’s dinner buffet at Taste Signature Restaurant from Aug. 5 to 18 and during lunch and dinner at China Spice Restaurant from Aug. 19 to Sept. 1.

    Chef Somwong has been a professional Thai chef for nearly 30 years and has cooked in top-class hotels such as The St. Regis Beijing and Westin Shanghai. He has been in China for 15 years and knows exactly what Chinese people pursue in Thai food.

    He will use handmade green curry, basil and other original Thai seasonings to cook authentic Thai cuisine such as well-known tom yam kung (prawn soup with lemon grass), nam phrik oong (chili paste with minced pork and tomatoes), chuchi pla (fish in dry red curry), som tam Thai (spicy green papaya salad with dried prawns, tomatoes, yardlong beans and peanuts), pik kai sot sai thot (deep-fried stuffed chicken wings), yam nuea yang (salad of grilled beef, shallots and celery or mint), tom chuet taohu kap sarai (non-spicy vegetable soup with tofu and seaweed) and more. All meals will be unforgettable experiences for Thai food enthusiasts.

    Guests can enjoy the dinner buffet for 298 yuan (US$48) per person, including house wine and soft drinks. Prices are subject to a 15-percent service charge.
