The Standard, Hua Hin  X Chef Ploy Natnicha Boonlerd June 2024 

Chef Ploy, a culinary chameleon, has transformed from an air hostess to a culinary superstar, becoming a finalist on MasterChef Thailand Season One and even competing in Top Chef Thailand 2023.

Chef Ploy Natnicha Boonlerd currently runs the local institution AMI Brunch & Bubbles. Together, they’re concocting a menu that’s more mysterious than a blind date: food that looks like one thing but tastes like a whole other universe of flavor.

The Standard is throwing culinary caution to the wind and teaming up with the enigmatic Chef Ploy Natnicha Boonlerd in celebration of Pride Month.

“It’s like love—sometimes what you see isn’t what you get, and that’s where the magic happens,” said Chef Ploy about the upcoming collaboration. “Without giving too much away, I’ll just say come and taste a meal made with love and plated with pride!”

The ‘Plated with Pride,’ an exclusive Thai izakaya set with seven tantalizing dishes, will also feature a special offer on beverages and Pride cocktails from Khun ‘Milk’ Thanaworachayakit, The Standard, Bangkok Mahanakhon’s talented Beverage Manager and Praça’s guest bartender.
