‘The art of bar’ – a collaboration between Chef Pam and the MGallery Collection<\/p><\/div>\n

A visionary voice shaping new bar classics<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Chef Pam, founder of Bangkok’s Michelin-starred Potong<\/a>, stands among the most influential voices in contemporary gastronomy. Named The World’s Best Female Chef 2025 and Asia’s Best Female Chef 2024, she is celebrated for a culinary philosophy rooted in contrast, balance and storytelling, where flavour becomes memory and texture becomes emotion.<\/p>\n

Chef Pichaya \u201cPam\u201d Soontornyanakij<\/a> said\u00a0\u201cFor me, flavour is a language shaped by contrast, memory and emotion. My cuisine is guided by the idea of five flavours and five emotions, striking a perfect balance of taste that evokes feeling and connection. With MGallery Collection, we wanted to let that language unfold beyond the plate and into the bar. These bites are not simply accompaniments; they are intentional compositions, designed to create dialogue between sip and taste. Together, we are celebrating a creativity that transcends borders, where global inspiration is expressed through the soul of each destination.\u201d<\/p>\n
