This article, Paksabuy will take you guys to Sunday Brunch Up & Above & The Okura Prestige Bangkok. Not to waste so much time, let's go for a tour and see how the Sunday Brunch buffet lines look like...

Looking from the map, to get to this hotel is very easy. It is right at the beginning of Wireless road connected to Ploenchit road. If you want to get here by BTS listen to "Next stop Ploenchit", alright get off at this station!!!

Get off from BTS, keep walking along the sky walk, which is connected to the hotel building, " Park Venture ". When you arrived at the ground floor, go up to 24th floor, there is the main lobby, where Up & Above restaurant located. Before we are going to see the Sunday brunch, let's have a quick look at the hotel interior for a bit..









Sunday Brunch at Up & Above will open the door at mid day 12 pm. Remember! to get here on time not too early, otherwise you might have to wait at the lobby until the door opens.

The Sunday Brunch here is offering very variety of food in up scale quality, comparable to 5-6 stars hotels. That why the price is as high as Lord Jim's Mandarin Oriental Bangkok.

P.S. You could guess the price from seeing the first picture........



Every menu in the menu lists and on the buffet line is no limit, you can get as much as you want. The only menu you will get one dish each is "Spaghetti with Lobster"..

Rather than the Spaghetti with Lobster, you can enjoy all kind of cuisines as much as you want. One thing you don't miss is to get some or a lot of Sushi and Sashimi because of this hotel is Japanese brand, what would you think about Sushi and Sashimi then!!!!!!!!" It is the best best Sushi & Sashimi in town". I have experienced many different Sunday brunches around the city I can tell here is the "Best" especially tuna, salmon and octopus. I can't not forget it's taste it still on my tongue. ( I am tearing because I finally have found a great Sushi and Sashimi in buffet line)...........................

I have been here during asparagus season, there were some variation asparagus dishes such as

" Salmon Terriyaki with White and Green Asparagus".

Pan seared Foie gras with Balsamic reduction, fig compote and rocket leaf. A lot of fat contain but you can't stop yourself from eating it, just to look at, you will get mouth-watering. As I have tried many places, I can guarantee that here is one of the best Foie gras. ( I would also recommend the Foie gras at Renaissance Bangkok, perfectly cooked, Crispy from out-side and soft in-side)...........

Eggs Benedict, which is a normal menu for brunch, ............I don't know the other comments.........but for me this menu is a failure........

Spaghetti Carbonara, this is up to five stars hotel standard, but it was a filler, fill up my stomach, even I have ordered a small portion just to have a bite but what I got was a full portion....

This is another dish, which you shouldn't miss!!!! Wagyu Beef Tenderloin, I would repeat my order for many times....(I cried myself again to get this delicious food)............

Tempura, The presentation on the plate, frying technique and the taste represents Japanese hotel brand. The only question is why did they fry the shrimps like a circle not stretch them as regular tempura style. But it's taste was good, I forgave the miss point then.......

Other than what I have been reviewed from above, the seafood is also highlight here for Sunday brunch...

Boston lobsters as much as you can, the line is always fulled up.......No worries .......:)

Giant Clams, No reasons not to try this, to be honest I have never ever found it in other hotels for a million years...

Fresh shucked oysters.....

Fresh oyster in sparkling wine, a bit weird taste for me, better as just fresh oyster.....

General standard Alaska King Crab.

New Zealand Blue Muscles, I did not try, but from the color, can tell how fresh it is....

Horse Crab, not for me too much work.....

Mantis Shrimps, no stinky smell because of it's freshness...

Cooked Shrimps, good quality and fresh....very delicious..

For Beef and Tuna Carpaccio lovers let come to this corner.......I have not tried it because not my favorite...

Different kinds of smoked fish included salmon.. I did not try, but from the picture can explain it's premium quality.

Lighter menus, some I have tried some I have not. Most of them are average taste....

I don't like cheeses, I have not tried, so I honestly have no idea about "cheeses"

Roasted Beef and Grilled Lamp, these two are not to miss as well, especially the lamp. No lamp smell even it looks very rare, to be confirmed "it was really delicious". At this station I have not tried beef because I got enough Wagyu Beef Tenderloin before.....

Crunchy skin pork belly German style, look very fatty, sorry not for me....pass...

No comment for this plate.....pass...again

There are Thai food in the buffet line but I have not try at all even a bite,,, So then, please just have a look how does it like....

There are some tapas, displayed for you to try too...!!

Bread varieties....I am not a fan..

Macaroon is good here, the white one with black sesame at the middle is their signature..

Different flavors of mousse, chocolate, strawberry and mango...

I did not skip trying this, strawberry chocolate fondue...

I have tasted all bakery and all were good in taste.... a little too much cream in coffee flavored.

This dessert you can not find in other hotel "Baumkuchen" rolled cake German style, it is the most delicious dessert,

I am so in love with it...

Three to four flavors home made sorbet. In this picture is mango sorbet, was just average....

Pound cake!!! I have not tried but the presentation is very elegance......

I guess most of Thais are not interesting in this corner. Thai dessert we can get all over the city...( This may be ordered from out sort shop not home made)

As the picture, herbaldrinks are included....
