A cruise down memory lane with traditional “pinto” set cuisine

A cruise down memory lane with traditional “pinto” set cuisine

Traditionally, Thai people have their lunch from uniquely designed food containers known as “pinto”. Catering to the nostalgia, the River Barge Restaurant at Chatrium Hotel Riverside Bangkok has launched exciting “Pinto Set Menus” with cuisine on offer.

Foodies will relish the exciting flavours and tantalising dishes, carefully prepared using the freshest and best seasonal ingredients.
Served in traditional pinto Thai food containers, each set for two persons is a must-try, with eternal Thai favourites such as soft-shell crab and mango sticky rice. The sets start at Bt1,200 net for two persons. Available every day for lunch and dinner, each set also serves the favourite summer time dessert -- mango and sticky rice.
“Thantawan Pinto Set” (vegetarian), priced at Bt1,200 net, includes spicy mixed mushroom salad, green curry with mixed vegetables and basil leaves, stir-fried eggplant with fried bean curd and basil as well as steamed jasmine rice.
The “Leelawadee Pinto Set”, priced at Bt1,400 net, offers crispy soft-shell crab with green mango and chili salad, red curry beef with coconut milk and kaffir lime leaves wok-fried asparagus, mushroom and shrimps, steamed jasmine rice.
