Andaman tiger prawns represent the largest sustainable prawn variety available in Thailand, with sweet, firm meat. The wok-frying creates a delicate exterior while keeping the interior tender. Okra provides a textural element without sliminess when prepared correctly. The coconut-tamarind combination is distinctly Southeast Asian — the tamarind's sourness balances coconut's richness. This dish showcases chef Pang's respect for local ingredients.
Tips from diners
This dish is where Chef Pang's local ingredient knowledge shines — the tamarind-coconut balance is distinctly Thai while the technique is refined French.
Chef Pang sources premium Chilean sea bass for its consistent quality and tender flesh. The charcoal grilling creates a delicate crust while the internal temperature is precisely controlled. Chinese chives (flowering chives) provide a mild onion-like aroma that doesn't overwhelm the fish. The supreme soy sauce is a chef-prepared reduction that adds umami depth without saltiness. Reviewers consistently highlight the balance of technique and flavor.
Tips from diners
Request the fish be served whole if possible — the presentation enhances the dining experience, and there's less waste than portioned fillets.
The Maine lobster is selected for its firm, sweet meat that handles the high-heat wok technique without becoming tough. Chef Pang's yellow bean sauce is house-prepared, balancing spice with umami without excessive salt. Curry leaves provide bright, citrusy notes that cut through the sauce's richness. The wok technique requires precision timing — this is a signature dish demonstrating Chef Pang's technical control.
Tips from diners
Mention your spice tolerance when ordering — the 'spicy' yellow bean sauce is moderately hot, but the kitchen can adjust. This is the signature preparation, so don't miss it.
Chef Pang's signature technique combines smoking with tea — the jasmine tea infuses delicate floral notes into the beef without overpowering it. The Wagyu marbling renders during the smoking process, creating juicy, tender meat. The ribs are plated whole, creating visual impact. This dish represents the restaurant's philosophy of 'refined Asian cooking' — sophisticated technique applied to bold flavors.
Tips from diners
The Wagyu ribs are a signature experience — order them without modifications to appreciate Chef Pang's intended flavor profile of tea-smoked beef.
The spring rolls serve as an elegant appetizer featuring tender Maine lobster with delicate Asian vegetables wrapped in thin, crispy rice paper. The filling is textured with water chestnuts and other vegetables, but lobster dominates the flavor. The crispy wrapper contrasts with the tender filling. Multiple diners call this the best introduction to Breeze's cooking philosophy.
Tips from diners
Order the spring rolls first to let them arrive hot before your mains. They're best enjoyed immediately after plating while the wrapper is still crispy.
Launched in 2006, Breeze occupies the 51st-52nd floors of Tower Club at lebua, helmed by Malaysian Chef Sam Pang who infuses authentic Asian flavors with subtle local influences.

Book 3-4 weeks in advance, especially for Friday-Saturday seatings. The 51st-52nd floor location and limited capacity fill quickly.
Request a window table when booking — the 360-degree city views are part of the experience. Early dinner (18:00-19:00) captures sunset lighting across Bangkok.
The à la carte menu changes seasonally based on ingredient availability. Don't hesitate to ask the servers for recommendations on the current best selections.
Plan 2-3 hours for the full dining experience — the kitchen paces courses deliberately, and the views deserve unhurried appreciation.
