Prepare your palate for a journey of culinary bliss as Le Méridien Bangkok warmly invites you to an unforgettable soirée of taste and sophistication—“An Evening of Austrian Elegance.” Set for 21 May 2025, this exclusive wine dinner promises an enchanting night for both discerning diners and aficionados of fine wines. The event unfolds from 19:00 to 22:00 at the elegant Tempo restaurant, where the setting will perfectly complement this delightful escapade.
On this spectacular evening, three luminary winemakers from the heart of Austria will grace us with their presence: the illustrious Markus Bach from Eisenberg, the masterful Johannes Gebeshuber of the Thermenregion, and the esteemed Kirnbauer family from Burgenland. These artisans of the vine will guide you through a curated selection of their most distinguished wines, each a testament to the unique terroir and cherished winemaking traditions of their regions.
The evening’s culinary exploration extends over a lavish six-course menu, crowned with a delectable dessert, meticulously paired with wines that echo the soul of Austrian viticulture. Imagine savoring bold reds from Eisenberg as they dance on your taste buds, or relishing the refined character of native varietals, all while embracing the vibrant allure of Pannonian blends.
The menu tantalizes with a harmonious array of gourmet delights: indulge in the luxurious textures of pan-seared Wagyu beef, delight in the succulence of buttery garlic prawns, experience the decadent richness of foie gras, and let the tender flakes of silky Norwegian salmon enchant your senses. Each dish is thoughtfully crafted, aiming to create an exquisite symphony with every pour of wine accompanying your meal.
At THB 3,999++ per person, this evening is not just a dinner—it’s an invitation to savor life itself. It’s a chance to immerse yourself in the rich narratives behind each vintage, to taste the passion poured into every bottle, and to experience the joie de vivre of Le Méridien Bangkok.

I’m excited about this event! Austrian wine is terribly underrated. Wish I could make it though!
Same here, but I think the price is a bit steep for just a dinner.
I see your point, but for the experience, it might be worth it. How often can you meet famous winemakers?
It’s not just a dinner, it’s an experience with quality pairings. Totally worth it if you enjoy wine!
I love how they are bringing high-quality European culture to Bangkok. It’s a must-go for anyone who appreciates not only wine but fine dining as a whole.
100% agree! This could be a fantastic cultural exchange.
Exactly, the chance to learn about Austrian traditions is also appealing. And those dishes seem divine!
I wish they had more diverse cuisine options. European elegance is nice, but why not incorporate local Thai elements too?
That would be interesting, a fusion might cater to more tastes. But I think they’re focusing on authentic Austrian flavors here.
I get it, but I’ve seen fusion done incredibly well before. Maybe next time!
I’d go just for the foie gras and Wagyu. Everything else is just the cherry on top!
Seriously, foie gras alone is the ultimate treat. Can’t find it done well too often.
Exactly, and pairing it with wine sounds like absolute heaven!
No vegetarian options mentioned! Are vegetarians supposed to fill themselves with wine?
I know, but they might accommodate if you call ahead. It’s a fine dining place, after all.
I hope so! Otherwise, it feels a bit exclusionary.
Three hours sound too long for a dinner unless it’s spectacular. Anyone ever been to something like this before?
With these kinds of events, the time passes quicker than you think! It’s all about savoring the moment.
Guess it makes sense, but I’m still skeptical. I might give it a try anyway.
I don’t mind the price; I just wish they included a good cheese pairing!
Honestly, it feels like just another overpriced dinner for people who want to look cultured.
But think about the unique wines! You can’t put a price on an exclusive tasting like this.
I suppose if the wine is that exceptional, it might be worth reconsidering.
I was lucky enough to meet Markus Bach at a similar event before. Truly an artist with wine!
That’s amazing! What was he like?
Will there be any discussion on sustainable winemaking practices? It’s becoming crucial in today’s climate situation.
These types of dinners are brilliant for networking with like-minded individuals!
Indeed, a good way to meet fellow enthusiasts.
