Bangkok Rooftop Tapas Bar LUZ Unveils Remarkable New Menu

 Suspended high above Bangkok’s emerging On Nut neighbourhood, INNSiDE by Meliá Bangkok Sukhumvit’s awe-inspiring rooftop tapas bar has launched a new menu that pays homage to Spain’s bold regional flavours.







Crafted by the hotel’s Spanish chef de cuisine, Madrid-born Juan Ignacio Garcia Racionero, also known as Chef Nacho, who has honed his craft in some of Spain’s leading kitchens, LUZ’s new menu celebrates Spain’s vibrant and diverse gastronomy.  Think San Sebastian-style pintxos and Basque-inspired dishes to Madrid street-food favourites, Andalusian seafood specialities and hearty rice and fideuà dishes synonymous with Spain’s eastern coastal regions.

Affording sweeping views of Bangkok’s skyline from the hotel’s 33rd floor, LUZ sits beneath the transparent base of the hotel’s infinity pool, allowing diners to peer into the pool above while dining.


Among the standout dishes are Steak tartar y Gilda San Sebastian that pairs Wagyu tenderloin tartare with brown and white anchovies and Spanish pickles on ciabatta, and Tacos de Rabo de Toro, with braised oxtail, roasted piquillo peppers and smoked Idiazabal cheese are folded into homemade corn tacos.


Seafood dishes feature prominently throughout the menu, including Carpaccio de Gamba Roja, a delicate red prawn carpaccio finished with espelette pepper and extra virgin olive oil, and Lomo de Corvina al Pil Pil de Azafran y Aji Amarillo, showcasing croaker with a saffron-infused pil-pil sauce layered with yellow chilli and fish collagen.


Other highlights include Pulpo Frito served with mashed potato and paprika oil, black squid-ink fideuà with red prawns and octopus, and a seafood paella with clams, mussels and squid.


Desserts continue the Spanish influence with a burnt Basque chocolate cheesecake served with white chocolate ice cream, warm chocolate fondant with vanilla custard, and creamy rice pudding with confit strawberries.


“This menu is very personal to me because it draws on the different regions and flavours I grew up with in Spain,” said Chef Nacho. “Spanish cuisine changes dramatically from one region to another, and I wanted the menu to encapsulate that diversity and match the energy of LUZ’s, with dishes designed to be shared over cocktails and incredible views of Bangkok”.


LUZ Bangkok Tapas Bar is open daily from 4pm until midnight.
