Thai Hot Pot Dinner at Benjarong in Dusit Thani Dubai

We had the opportunity to try the Thai Hot Pot dinner at Benjarong Royal Thai Cuisine with other Dubai bloggers. Benjarong is an authentic Thai restaurant which is located on the 24th floor of the Dusit Thani Dubai. If you’re a fan of Thai food, then you can head to Benjarong inside this hotel along Sheikh Zayed Road.

This restaurant has won many awards in the Dubai dining scene so it’s really nice to sample an experience from this place.

Benjarong Restaurant in Dusit Thani Hotel

The Dusit Thani Dubai is an iconic 5-star luxury hotel that showcases the essence of Thailand in the vibrant centre of the city. First thing you will notice when you see this unique building is it’s design which has two-bases that meet at the top. This structure, according to sites I’ve come across, takes the shape of the Thai greeting called “Wai” where two palms touch each other as though in a ‘prayer’.

The spacious hotel lobby is a grand sight. I was glad to have finally stepped inside as we always pass by this building when we go to The Dubai Mall.

Benjarong is located at the 24th floor and when you arrive at the central lobby, there are actually 3 restaurants available. The Californian which offers international dining, PAX which offers Italian cuisine, and Benjarong Thai restaurant.

I was pleasantly surprised by the interior because of the wooden tables and chairs, pillars, and designs that make up the restaurant. Despite the futuristic look of the Dusit Thani Dubai from the outside, here lies traditional Thai decorations that also prepared us for a night of good food.

Thai performers would come up to the stage and entertain diners by playing a musical instrument or through a cultural dance. This makes a unique dinner experience overall.

The Thai Hotpot offer is part of Benjarong’s promotion this January which gives you the experience to cook your ingredients right on your table. They have a seafood hot pot, meat hot pot, and vegetarian hot pot.

We opted for the vegetarian and the meat hotpots. We also ordered some Thai menu staples such as Thai Green Curry (Chicken) and Pad Thai Noodles. Here are some photos of the food.

You will be presented with the ingredients and if this is your first time to try the hot pot, you can simply request the friendly staff to demonstrate how to prepare the soup. They will also explain the process as well and share the sauces included. This hotpot meal is good for 2 persons.

It was a night of fun conversations over good food and what better way to finish our 3-course set than with Thailand’s famous Mango sticky rice dessert! I was also able to try a dessert made of water chestnuts in coconut milk called Tub Tim Grob.
