Dumplings for the poet

Dusit Thani Bangkok’s Mayflower restaurant joins Chinese communities in commemorating the death of Qu Yuan, a famous Chinese poet from the Kingdom of Chu who lived during the Warring States Period, by serving glutinous rice dumplings from now until May 30.

The dumplings, zongzi in Chinese, are stuffed with different fillings and wrapped in bamboo, reed, or other large flat leaves. They are eaten during the Duanwu Festival, which falls on the fifth day of the fifth month of the lunar calendar.
The Mayflower offers the zongzi glutinous rice dumplings with 3 mouth-watering fillings made from the finest ingredients. The Fortune Dumpling with an abalone filling is priced at Bt688-plus, the Treasure Dumpling (conpoy filling),at Bt488 and the Sovereignty Dumpling (mixed filling) at Bt188.
