Another palace to dine at
I am a fan of the Iron Chef Thailand (and also Iron Chef America), a TV program that puts chefs in the cooking contest arena, which was originated in Japan by Fuji Television Network. Earlier this year, when I witnessed two Chinese chefs from one of my favorite hotel chains - IHG, Crowne Plaza's Xin Tian Di and InterContinental's Summer Palace, beat the Iron Chef of Chinese cuisine from the Iron Chef Thailand, I had a mixed feeling.
I agree that Chef Lam of Xin Tian Di (Crowne Plaza Bangkok Lumpini Park) deserved the victory in the Iron Chef Thailand contest, as I always enjoy his culinary service at his restaurant, whether it is home-style menu when I dine alone, or a banquet feast that I celebrate with friends. And for Chef Khor of Summer Palace (InterContinental Hotel Bangkok), I have a neutral view on that. I do sometimes enjoy food there!

So this Summer Palace is not worth to waste my time! See you next week TC.
I also enjoy eating at Xin Tien Di. Summer Palace is at average to me too.
Good that we have something to skip in BKK such as Summer Palace.
Yes the cooking contest on TV sounds interesting especially about the blind Vietnamese girl. Impressive.
Thanks for the sharing TC.
@Stella: the Iron Chef contest didn't hv a blind contestant. it was the other cooking contest - the Master Chef US Season 3, by FOX. to c if she wins, watch this -
