Rosewood Phuket Offers Laid-Back Dining Experience In A Luxury Setting

Rosewood Phuket known for its must-try destination dining venues not only offers authentic culinary experiences as recognized in the Michelin Guide but also an easy-going and relaxed vibe in two of their outdoor poolside restaurants; The Shack and Mai Bar.

Released 4 May 2020

Each distinct venue curates recipes through experiential-driven dining concepts. The chefs have learned firsthand how the older generations’ cooked simple culinary pleasures centered around the kitchen and elevated the offering so that it was befitting for a luxury resort or your traditional family home. Guests can also discover Phuket’s rich culinary diversity through the resort’s “A Sense of Taste” which is a commitment to support area artisanal food suppliers and present diverse, seasonal menus of local fare. Chefs work closely with top quality local farmers and producers who deliver the finest home-grown ingredients to create a luscious meal for the people who drop by.

The Shack

Guests can experience life at its most basic with the rustic, laid-back atmosphere of The Shack, which was inspired by the world’s most memorable seaside joints. An array of unpretentious seafood specials chalked up on the blackboard showcases the finest local ocean flavors, including your Catch of the Day, oysters or a ceviche specialty. The Shack offers more than just traditional seafood, their menu also includes traditional Thai dishes, an open kitchen with hot stone oven and charcoal grill, counter seating, and delectable desserts and beverages to enjoy whilst hanging out poolside.

Mai

Mai has two distinct personalities: by day, it is a laid-back pool bar, and after dark, it morphs into a stylish, sophisticated lounge where the beachfront ambiance and entertainment make this one of the island’s chicest hot spots. Guests can choose to relax in the open-aired timber pavilion adorned with artisan-style beaded curtains or on lounge beds and relaxed seating on the surrounding pool terrace.

Mai’s handcrafted, signature cocktails were designed by world-famous barman Giancarlo Mancino. Under the afternoon sun, guests can lie back on oversized day beds sipping light and refreshing cocktails infused with local ingredients, such as the Mango Moscato Spritzer, Beer Margarita Tequila and Pina Colada Slush. The evening’s libations range from an impressive selection of aperitifs, spritzers, and negronis such as The Unusual, a blend of Vermouth Bianco, Vodka and Orange Sorbet; Limoncello Spritzer; and the Vintage Negroni with Vermouth Rosso, Chinato, Gin, Rinomato and Bitters. Mai also provides a light bite menu complementing the extensive beverage list.
