Most oysters look pretty much the same, but they taste different depending on the place of origin. For those who simply cannot resist the so-called aphrodisiac washed down with a glass or two of bubbly, Anantara Siam Bangkok Hotel is holding an “Oysters of the World” promotion from March 3 to 16 at Madison restaurant. Check it out for a selection of Eagle Rock Oysters from America, Fine De Claire from France, Matoya from Japan and Tasmanian Oysters from Australia. Prices start at Bt140.

All about vanilla
Movenpick Hotels & Resorts have rolled out their new vanilla-inspired savoury menu at their properties, in Asia following the concept’s overwhelming success in Europe. Discerning diners can sample the innovative “Vanille Salee” promotion until March 21 through six one-of-a-kind vanilla-enhanced dishes. Traditionally used for desserts, vanilla produces exciting results when added to hearty savoury dishes: its mild flavour harmonises to surprising perfection with white meats and fish. Check it out at Movenpick properties in Bangkok, Pattaya and Phuket. Visit www.Movenpick.com.
Music in their midst
The Fine Arts Department hosts the Sukhothai World Heritage Live Orchestra at the northern world heritage site next Tuesday and Wednesday. Led by conductor Wanich Potawanich, classical symphonies will blend with Thai culture in a two-hour musical extravaganza that celebrates the ruins. Tickets cost Bt900 and the gates opens at 7pm. Sukhothai province is slightly more than an hour by plane from Bangkok and there are three flights a day.
