LUZ Rooftop Bar Unveils Spain's Bold Flavors Over Bangkok's Skyline

LUZ, the rooftop tapas bar at INNSiDE by Meliá Bangkok Sukhumvit, has unveiled a fresh menu showcasing Spain’s regional flavours. Diners can now enjoy a mix of Basque pintxos, Andalusian seafood, and Madrid street food while taking in Bangkok’s skyline. The setting is unique—seated beneath the hotel’s infinity pool, guests can watch swimmers glide above through the transparent base. Spanish chef de cuisine Juan Ignacio Garcia Racionero, known as Chef Nacho, has designed the menu for sharing. Highlights include Carpaccio de Gamba Roja and Lomo de Corvina al Pil Pil de Azafran y Aji Amarillo, both reflecting Spain’s coastal influences. Other standout dishes feature Pulpo Frito, black squid-ink fideuà, and a traditional seafood paella.

The menu also draws from San Sebastian’s pintxos tradition, with dishes like Steak tartar y Gilda San Sebastian and Tacos de Rabo de Toro. For dessert, options include burnt Basque chocolate cheesecake, warm chocolate fondant, and creamy rice pudding. Chef Nacho intended the dishes to pair well with cocktails, enhancing the bar’s lively atmosphere. LUZ is open daily from 4pm until midnight, offering both dinner and late-night bites. The bar’s design, with its pool-overhead feature, adds an unusual twist to the dining experience.

The new menu at LUZ brings a taste of Spain’s diverse culinary regions to Bangkok. Diners can explore everything from seafood paella to Madrid-style tapas in a striking rooftop setting. The bar’s extended hours and shared-plate concept aim to attract both evening crowds and late-night visitors.
