If the name Arnaud Dunand Sauthier sounds familiar, it's because he's the chef who once ran the kitchen at Le Normandie, the two-MICHELIN-star French dining room at the Mandarin Oriental. At a certain point, though, the chef chose to step out and open his own place — and what he brought with him wasn't hotel-grade French cuisine, but food from his own roots: Savoie, the Alpine region where he grew up. Maison Dunand was born in a house styled after a mountain chalet, tucked into Soi Sathon 10 in the Silom/Bang Rak area, and the MICHELIN Guide Thailand has awarded it one star, retained continuously through the 2026 edition, with inspectors citing both the polished, contemporary tasting menu, the cheese trolley with more than 20 selections, and a wine collection especially strong in Alsace and Savoie.
The concept here is crystal clear: food of the Alps, spanning the French, Swiss, and Italian sides, served as a three-tier tasting menu you can pick based on budget and appetite — Sentier THB 2,950 / Alpage THB 4,950 / Sommet THB 6,500 net per person (this menu runs through 19 August 2026). Even the menu names play on the mountain theme, from "hiking trail" to "summit" — the bigger the course, the higher you climb. The one thing you absolutely shouldn't miss is the cheese trolley with more than 20 selections, which MICHELIN itself calls out, because cheese is the heart of Alpine food, and getting to choose straight off an actual trolley in Bangkok is an experience that's hard to find. Pair it with Savoie wines that almost no other restaurant in Thailand goes this deep on, and the chalet-house atmosphere carries you far from the bustle of Sathorn without needing to board a plane.
What makes this restaurant special is the sense of "home" its name promises — Maison manages its entire booking system itself, with no third-party platform involved; book through the website, by phone, or by email and you're dealing directly with the restaurant's own team, and lunch service runs only Friday and Saturday, which makes those two days the first slots to fill. For anyone who wants to taste star-level cooking from a chef who once carried Le Normandie to two stars, at a starting price under three thousand baht, this is one of the best deals in Bangkok's fine-dining scene.
Maison Dunand
Budget starts at the Sentier tasting menu at THB 2,950 per person, stepping up to Alpage at THB 4,950 and Sommet at THB 6,500 net (this menu is served through 19 Aug 2026). Booking must go directly through the restaurant — via the form on maisondunand.com, by phone at +66 65 639 0515, or by email at Reservations@maisondunand.com. No need to worry about queuing at the door, since the restaurant only accepts advance reservations — but book several days ahead if you're eyeing Friday-Saturday dinner or the lunch service, which runs only Friday-Saturday 12:00-15:00. Those two days fill fastest, while weekday dinner (Tuesday-Thursday 18:00-23:00) is the easiest slot to book. The restaurant is closed Sunday-Monday.
Getting there is easier than you'd think — get off at BTS Chong Nonsi and walk about 8 minutes into Soi Sathon 10. If you want the full experience at a lighter price, Friday lunch is the smart choice — slightly quieter than Saturday but from the same kitchen. And save room for the 20+-selection cheese trolley at the end of the meal.
