Siam Supper Club (PHUKET)

Definitely an icon!! It screams the word. There are few places in the world that provoke such a sense of time and place. The Siam Supper CLub is a long bar and grill that has become synonymous with the cool of a bygone age still leaving it's sophisticated imprint. It's cool.... in the same way scotch on the rocks is cool . Beautiful...no glorious jazz filling the few empty spaces. One of the most interesting collection of sepia black and whites remain true to this same time and place. When one is at the Siam Supper Club, one has to give up the mantle of tourist or visitor and for brief time assume the rank of resident or..... Phuketian. For when you're at The Siam Supper Club you are well and truly placed in a subtley lit and timbered comfort zone where a cocktail is still a cocktail dam it, the wines are big and the fabulous food reminds you of how things used to be. Ah! The tropics!
