MGallery Collection reimagines the hotel bar experience through a new global collaboration with MICHELIN-starred Chef Pichaya “Pam” Soontornyanakij for this year’s World Cocktail Month.
This new initiative transforms the traditional cocktail pairing into a more curated and immersive gastronomic ritual, blending mixology with Chef Pam’s signature, flavor-driven storytelling. Their collaboration will roll out across 16 MGallery properties worldwide, including six locations across Asia.
Participating locations include The Silveri Hotel Hong Kong – MGallery Collection, Hotel Naru Seoul Ambassador – MGallery Collection, V Villas Maldives at Miriji – MGallery Collection, Avista Hideaway Patong Resort & Spa Phuket – MGallery Collection, and Hotel Sosei Sapporo – MGallery Collection.
Renowned as one of the most influential voices in contemporary gastronomy, as well as her approach to Thai-Chinese cuisine, Chef Pam developed a series of globally inspired bites designed to interact directly with each cocktail.
Here are Chef Pam’s globally inspired bar bites, to be served alongside MGallery Collection’s curated cocktail collection for World Cocktail Month 2026:
- Caviar-Crowned Tartare, to be served with the Prohibition Martini
- Tender Temptation, paired with The Botanist’s Waltz
- Sun-Kissed Crab, with the Midnight Fizz Society
- Truffle Shuffle Polenta, alongside the Cult of Verde
- Squid’s Midnight Dip, with the Archive of Tomorrow
The Asia program also introduces region-specific interpretations using local ingredients and flavor profiles, which include the Shrimp Garden Toast and Air & Fire Corn (Thailand & Maldives), Fiery Mantou Bun and Soy-Dipped Purple Fries (Mainland China & Hong Kong), Tofu & Apple Eclipse and Sea Breeze Tartare (Japan & South Korea), and are paired with Sunset Botanica and Tropic Mirage.
The collaboration reflects a broader shift towards a more experience-led hospitality, where cocktails, food, and storytelling merge into a single curated encounter. Chef Pam’s bites will be officially launched across all participating locations on May 13, 2026, available all year round, while the World Cocktail Month cocktails will be available for a limited three-month run.
