Duel District: Seafood Showdown – Fresh from Fishermen vs. Restaurant Cuisine

For all seafood enthusiasts, the “Duel District” event is here to tantalize your taste buds with a unique challenge: Fresh seafood from local fishermen versus gourmet seafood from renowned chefs at Siam Paragon.

A Culinary Showdown at Siam Paragon

From now until June 25, 2024, Siam Paragon hosts an exciting seafood festival at Park Paragon. This event pits traditional seafood straight from the fishermen against sophisticated restaurant-style seafood dishes crafted by top chefs.

Event Highlights

Two Distinct Zones:

  1. Fisherman’s Area: Enjoy authentic seafood dishes sourced directly from fishermen in Phang Nga and Satun provinces.
  2. Chef’s Area: Indulge in exquisite seafood dishes created by chefs from four of Bangkok’s top restaurants, led by Chef Nick from Wang Hinghoi.

Visitors can savor a variety of seafood preparations—boiled, steamed, fried, grilled, and more—with spicy dipping sauces and innovative dishes like Seafood Yakitori, Seafood Paella, Seafood Platter, and Calamari.

A Celebration of Freshness and Flavor

Seafood lovers are invited to taste the freshness of Thai seas with a diverse menu, including fresh fish, shrimp, mantis shrimp, blue crabs, sea crabs, oysters, squid, and more, prepared in both Thai and Western styles.

Event Organizers

Jeeraporn Pakpinpetch, CEO of All of Luck Co., Ltd., the mastermind behind many street food events such as Morning Bangkok Street Food and The Legend is Back, emphasizes the event’s goal:

“For over five years, we’ve hosted seafood events under the Bangkok Street Food Festival umbrella, aiming to elevate Thai street food to international recognition. We meticulously select vendors known for their delicious and authentic street food, ensuring that our events are unique and centrally located. This strategy not only attracts tourists but also leverages food as a soft power to draw visitors to Thailand.”

Sopida Kitikomolsuk, Head of Global Event Management at Siam Paragon, adds:

“Siam Paragon is proud to play a crucial role in reinforcing Thailand’s image as a premier global tourist destination. We cater to every lifestyle, especially with Thai cuisine, which is increasingly popular. Hosting this event showcases Thai street-style seafood to the world, supports local fishermen and talented Thai chefs, and stimulates the economy.”
