Bangkok, Thailand, May 13, 2023 / TRAVELINDEX / Jim Thompson, the iconic global lifestyle brand from Thailand, is delighted to announce the opening of Jim's Terrace, a new Thai tapas café in the heart of Bangkok. Located on the second floor of the iconic store in the Jim Thompson Heritage Quarter, Jim's Terrace offers a delicious selection of Thai tapas, masterfully prepared using top-quality, locally sourced organic ingredients.

Jim's Terrace, inspired by the enchanting charm of the terrace at Jim Thompson's legendary "House on the Klong," offers guests an unparalleled setting to savor authentic Thai delicacies. Thanks to its open and spacious design, guests can admire the stunning surroundings of traditional Thai houses and the lush garden while enjoying delectable dishes such as the Northern Thai-style grilled sandwich, Jim's creamy oxtail croquettes, satay chicken wings on a stick made with organic chicken from Klong Phai Farm, mala moo ping made with sous-vide pork from Sloane's Farm in Chiang Rai, Isan-style beef tongue, and the restaurant's signature desserts.

“Jim’s Terrace is the perfect way to end a visit to the Jim Thompson Heritage Quarter,” says Joan Tana Dot, Food & Beverage Director. “Our menu has been carefully curated to showcase the authentic flavors of Thai cuisine while sourcing high-quality, organic ingredients from local Thai farms and the Royal Projects. Our talented culinary team has created an innovative menu that highlights the best of Thai cuisine, focusing on small plates designed for sharing. We pride ourselves on showcasing the diversity of Thai flavors, using only the finest locally sourced ingredients. Our commitment to quality and authenticity guarantees our guests a genuine taste of Thailand while supporting local farmers and suppliers.”

Menu highlights include the crispy mushroom chips from Royal Project, the Thai Green Curry Chicken Wrap Tortillas, and the Maison Fostier Artisan Thai Charcutier (this Thai sausage platter is served with four different types of peppers, mango jelly, pickled melon, and pickled onions). For a touch of green, there's the traditional Thai eggplant salad and the Siam Caesar salad. Those with a heartier appetite will find three main courses at Jim's Terrace: the Super Isan Burger, Tom Yum Fried Rice, and Jim's Nachos. The burger is made with dry-aged Jasmine Wagyu beef from Khon Kaen and organic bacon from Nakhon Ratchasima. The Tom Yum Rice combines Tom Yum Kung with paella (Spanish paella) and uses organic jasmine rice from Rai Thong Fram, Chiang Rai. Jim's Nachos feature pork in red curry, topped with smoked ricotta from Jartisann and homemade pickles.

Jim's Terrace also offers special desserts, including the exclusive "Choco Banana" creation from the collaboration between Kadkokoa and Jim's Terrace. Guests can also enjoy Jim's Terrace's signature dessert: Thai Coconut Panna Cotta.

About Jim Thompson: No brand embodies tradition quite like Jim Thompson, the Thai silk company founded in 1951 by James H.W. Thompson. Thompson was an architect, art collector, bon vivant, and entrepreneur, and is considered the driving force behind the revival of the Thai silk industry. His disappearance in 1967 remains one of Southeast Asia's greatest mysteries.
