2020 is set to be a good year for food, especially with IGNIV Bangkok by Andreas Caminada set to open at The St. Regis Bangkok in April 2020.
IGNIV by Andreas Caminada will create its tropical home in Bangkok, becoming the first addition to the IGNIV family outside chef Andreas' home country of Switzerland. IGNIV bears chef Caminada's artful cooking and takes on a playful, flavour-packed sharing-style dining experience suited to the Thai capital. Following the success of his first two Michelin-starred IGNIV restaurants in St. Moritz and Bad Ragaz in the Swiss Alps, chef Caminada sums up his enthusiasm for Bangkok and its connection to IGNIV highlighting the dynamic and creative dining scene, exemplary local produce and rich culinary heritage, and the energy-packed pulse of the city's streets.
"Bangkok is an amazing city! I love the deep connection it has with food, its rich culture and lively, bustling atmosphere, and Bangkok has become an internationally much regarded culinary hotspot in recent years. IGNIV Bangkok's fine-dining-sharing-experience will charm its guests at the prestigious St. Regis Bangkok. We share the same high quality values and have already successfully collaborated for our IGNIV pop-up tour in 2018. Now, we are extremely happy to open IGNIV Bangkok's new home here," explains chef Caminada.
IGNIV, meaning "nest" in Romansh, will be helmed by chef David Hartwig who is one of chef Caminada's most promising talents. The 29-year-old has already gained valuable experience in many Michelin-starred restaurants, such as Paradies Hotel, Ftan, Switzerland; The Nomad Hotel, New York; and IGNIV by Andreas Caminada and Schloss Schauenstein in Switzerland.
Needless to say we have our eyes and palates ready and waiting!
