Italian Rustic Fare – Theo Mio by Theo Randall


Italian food remains more than ever one of Bangkokian’s favourite cuisine – it ’s all about celebrating fresh, imported and local ingredients and preparing dishes that allow diners to explore and enjoy a culinary journey in an environment that is fun and relaxed.

Theo Mio by Theo Randall opened since last year at ground floor of InterContinental Hotel Bangkok. Lately  the restaurant became a hangout place for Italian food lovers.  We recently had a chance to experience some of Theo Randall’s exciting dishes during his visit to Bangkok.
