House Of Tin Baron, a historic landmark in Phuket Old Town, recently opened its doors as the newest luxurious lifestyle destination.
Presenting two dining experiences, the world’s first Louis Roederer Cristal Room and Terra, an Italian restaurant, House of Tin Baron is within Phuket's vibrant historic Sino-Portuguese district. It has been reimagined by global architecture and design firm dwp, building upon the original design concept by Ong-ard Satrabhandhu, the renowned Thai National Artist and architect.
The design seamlessly blends traditional architecture with contemporary aesthetics, honouring the site's rich heritage. A welcoming oasis of lush landscaping and a reflective pond complement the building's historical splendour, while meticulously preserved elements, including keystone arches, semi-circular windows and limestone columns, speak to the enduring significance of this Sino-Portuguese gem.
Louis Roederer Cristal Room at House Of Tin Baron
Louis Roederer Cristal Room at House of Tin Baron offers an unparalleled Champagne experience, a tribute to the rich heritage of Louis Roederer Cristal, originally created for Tsar Alexander II of Russia in 1876. The opulent interior, shimmering with luminous white, gold and Champagne hues, elevates every sip to pure indulgence.
Intimate nooks, artfully crafted from repurposed window alcoves, bask in the warm glow of a magnificent chandelier, while a freshly whitewashed balustrade adds a final touch of timeless elegance. Within this sanctuary, guests can indulge in the world's most prestigious selections, including Cristal Brut and Rosé, alongside rare vintages such as the celebrated 2008 and 2012 with expertly guided sommelier-led tastings.
Terra
Terra, the Italian fine dining destination, embodies its namesake, “earth”, by offering a transcendent culinary experience rooted in seasonal ingredients sourced from across the globe. Executive chef Okan Ozturk's curated tasting menus and à la carte options masterfully blend Italian culinary heritage with sophisticated global influences, allowing the pure essence of each ingredient to shine.
This reverence for nature's bounty is echoed in the restaurant's warm and inviting ambience, adorned with rich earthy tones of brown and green, accented by gleaming brass and bronze. Elevating the experience further, the centrepiece show kitchen, Dolce Terra, presents innovative interpretations of classic Italian desserts, while the enchanting outdoor piazza provides an idyllic alfresco setting beneath the stars.
