Laya Suites & Residences

Rooted in tradition, Thai Library presents a refined Southern Thai menu shaped by local recipes and ingredients. The pu phat phrik lueang – Phang-Nga mud crab sautéed with yellow chilli – delivers a slow-building heat that is balanced by the crab's natural sweetness and a savoury finish. Begin the evening outdoors, cocktail in hand, as you take in the sunset over the hotel's private beach – an unforgettable prelude to dinner.

Jampa continues its dialogue with nature through ingredients grown and gathered close to home. À la carte is available throughout the day, but the exquisitely prepared Jampa Experience at lunchtime is highly recommended, featuring complex natural flavours that evolve with the seasons. For a unique lakeside experience on Saturdays, Hideaway’s four-course lunch, cooked over a wood fire, both tantalises the taste buds and educates diners on mindful practices. A plant-forward menu is also offered as a thoughtful vegetarian option.

The Thai chef-owner draws superb flavour from a wood-fired oven, turning out Neapolitan pies with puffy, char-flecked Canotto rims and airy bases. The menu ranges from homemade pasta and creamy risotto to prime grilled meats, seafood and crisp salads, including green bowls. The braised seabass with clams is light, fresh and aromatic. Dine in the cool, air-conditioned room or on the leafy terrace; both suit laid-back gatherings among friends or family.
