Of course, if you love rooftops, your first stop must be at Sirocco Sky Bar. In fact, I believe that it is one of the most famous rooftop bars. Because of its amazing views, the cocktails and food are also very good. In addition, it is no secret that Sirocco has received many awards over a long period of time. In addition, I participated in the famous film "Hangover Two in Bangkok". In short, the above bar is the place to visit in the city for drinking and dining. When the view is amazing, you still want to leave Sirocco Sky Bar in Bangkok. I do not think so. However, the problem does not come here but the price. In fact, for drinks and snacks, you pay between $850 and $1,000 THB each. Not counting the normal menu, the prices are high. However, I don't deny that the food and drinks are delicious. So my favorites at Sirocco sky Bar are Crispy Chicken Tacos and Thai Lips Cocktail.

Otherwise, you can choose Lobster rolls which are also very good or snacks and other drinks because there are many things to enjoy in this beautiful bar. Finally, I would recommend you to visit Sirocco Sky Bar, at least once. Because of this, it's a great experience, with good food and drinks. On top of that, it's a rooftop bar with an amazing view. Located on the 63rd floor of the State Tower, Sky Bar offers a panoramic view of Bangkok and the Chao Phraya River. Even if they did not create the name, they did the architecture. A Greco-Roman influence dominates the landscape, while the landmark is a large dome with golden columns that shines in the sunset. Part of the movie was shot there and it has become a real movie. It's pretty over the top, but it's also pretty cool. The State Tower is a hotel called Lebua and many bars and restaurants that all have different names - it can be a little confusing when trying to plan a night out, so this is a bit of an explanation.

The Dome is what they call part of their whole house and restaurant - it spreads over several levels and is where Sirocco, Mezzaluna, Breeze, Sky Bar, Distil and Ocean 52 are located. Sirocco is an open-air restaurant located on the 63rd floor surrounding the Sky Bar - these are the two most expensive places in the Dome (and possibly Bangkok). A standard drink will cost you around AUS $15 and I've heard of couples spending as much as a dollar sum for dinner and drinks. A few floors down is a restaurant called Breeze, which most of the Lebua racing guys actually prefer over Sirocco. I've never had a meal at Sirocco (due to budget constraints), but Breeze is well priced and the views are even better. There are tables inside and outside, and the bartenders at Ocean 52 make a great Espresso Martini.

If you don't have an unlimited budget and want to spend an evening at the Dome, the best way to do it is to have a sunset cocktail at the Sky Bar and have dinner at the Breeze. The last time we were there, we had a drink at Ocean 52 and then went to Khao San Road for dinner. What follows is a wild night of tuk tuk fun and big clubs, as sometimes you have to balance the luxury of the rooftops and the beautiful streets. But more on that later… So, what is it like to dine at Sirocco Bangkok, the longest open-air restaurant in the world? Well, I can sum it up in one word: amazing!

I've seen this restaurant and the Dome Sky Bar in pictures, as well as a clip from the movie The Hangover Part II and it's been on my list for a while.. So that's what I did
Even though I'm going soon, I don't want to take a chance, so I made a reservation online in advance hoping that it will not rain that night. If the weather is bad, food is moved inside the dome.

Therefore, at night the weather is bright and the weather is clear and dry. I have my son and we expect to get there, so we decide to leave at 6 P.M. to make traffic and cross the city. We arrived at the tower of Lebua around 6.30 p.M. When the sun goes to bed for 7 p.m. the reservation. Sirocco Bangkok
Since we weren't there before entering, we weren't sure where to go, but there are good signs directing you in the direction of Sirocco and Sky Bar. You are always looking for an elevator that will take you to the 63rd floorSirocco Bangkok

Since we weren't there before entering, we weren't sure where to go, but there are good signs directing you in the direction of Sirocco and Sky Bar. You are always looking for an elevator that will take you to the 63rd floor. As soon as the elevator opened, we were greeted by the staff who immediately started welcoming us and asked if we had a dinner reservation or if we were there for the Sky Bar. Once we got our reservations, we headed down the stairs to the restaurant. Now, as you exit the Dome and climb the terrace stairs, you are struck by the most amazing view. This is the time when you want to take your camera but it is forbidden to take pictures from the Dome or the stairs but you are free to take pictures in all other areas. This system will keep an eye on customers entering and leaving bars and restaurants.

This law is strictly enforced. Tripods and selfie sticks are not allowed in any area. We were given the choice of sitting in a smoking or non-smoking area. If you choose not to smoke, you will be seated in the SkyBar, in a more private section. However, the awesome imagination from each table. There is also one singer that plays on the platform in front of the dome, which is the music and doesn't work. Sirocco is all about good food and servers who are impeccably dressed and attentive to their guests. When he sat down next to my attendant, he told me that there was a small platform next to my seat that I could place my purse on so that it wouldn't rest on the floor, I thought that was really cool. thoughts. Linen cloths are placed on our laps, oil candles are lit, and food is placed in front of us.

We then had a chance to think about it for a while and took the opportunity to take a few pictures. Yes, it was a bit of a downer 63 across Bangkok on our first night - really, you can't help it - the thought leaves you speechless! The good thing is that the caterer didn't miss a thing and said he would take a few pictures for us. I have a feeling that they use this for people and they are more than happy to take a few shots.. Even pouring my son a Coke was well done! Thai people really know how to take care of their guests at every level. Also, they left us wondering about the menu. There was a good choice on the menu and I chose Fois Grois as a starter, chicken as a main and my son chose duck as a main. Fresh bread is brought to the table with not only regular butter but also wasabi butter. The foie gras was amazing, better than anything I tried in Paris. It is mixed with apricots and apricot drops and decorated with pistachios. I can't say enough about the taste or the idea of ​​mixing all these foods together to create such deliciousness! It's sweet, it's salty but most of all it's the perfect marriage of the two.

The main course also arrived - My chicken breast was cooked to perfection and marinated in rosemary and lemon, potatoes, roasted tomatoes and gravy. My grandson's dish consisted of smoky pan-fried breast, flatbread, rhubarb-strawberry relish and Provencal style artichokes. The sauce had a sweet taste and was too much for my son, but I found that it tasted better when mixed with the duck. At this point we were both full and finished the dessert menu. There were so many good options on offer that I could have put dessert in there, but we were stumped (we had ice cream for afternoon tea). So instead I asked for the bill. When the waiter came back, he joked that this is your mom's bill, and he gave me a free birthday cake and candles. He started singing Happy Birthday and encouraged my son to join.

It was a funny time but I will remember it well! He then told me he could take a picture of me, which was cool. Now, as I said before, we both stumped this time - but somehow we managed to eat it! INow, did I mention it was my birthday, so it was a nice surprise. So, now we are well done and a waiter came and left two small towels on our table for us to wipe our hands. It reminds people they give in the plane. In fact, the bill came to 7,132 baht, which after conversion equals about 250 Australian dollars. One thing to be aware of: you will be charged 10% duty/VAT on top of what you actually paid and this happens in all Thai restaurants. Most main meals cost between 1,300-3,000 baht ($50-100 AUS/US), which I think is reasonable because the food is really good, the service is impeccable and the idea is fascinating.
