What is new at [CUISINE] this week: dishes coming off the R&D bench, After Shift nights, bottles worth knowing about, and the people cooking and pouring in Silom.

Our new head chef has cooked in Tokyo, Kyoto and at Mezzaluna in Bangkok. Who Ismael Whitehead is and what he brings to the open kitchen at [CUISINE] in Silom.

Marie Barbarroux, who ran the bar at [CUISINE] in Silom through our first months, has moved on. A note of thanks from the team at the pass.

Three weeks ago five plates were still being tested at [CUISINE] in Silom. What happened to each: two joined the menu, one became a flatbread, two came off.

What an open kitchen restaurant in Silom feels like from the seat: no wall, no pass window, the heat and noise of service, and the counter where it all happens.

[CUISINE] in Silom now opens every day. What changed on the menu this month: langoustines XL, razor clams, a reworked hamachi and a bavette on the grill.
