酒店行政总厨Duncan Feng
When looking for the refinement and attention to detail that represent the highest level service, The Sukhothai Shanghai clearly stands out among Shanghai’s luxury hotel scene.
From arrival to checkout no effort is spared in ensuring guests of the hotel enjoy a heightened level of service and hospitality that is the mark of a destination hotel in any city.
如果你正在寻找一家注重细节且服务周到的酒店，上海素凯泰酒店无疑榜上有名。从抵达酒店到退房离开，上海素凯泰酒店努力为顾客提供优质的服务体验，在喧闹都市给你一处静谧之地，在自然风尚之间体验一场舒适的休闲假日。
Staying ahead of the competition in Shanghai’s competitive hotel scene isn’t easy at the best of times, and the additional complications that Covid-19 has presented offer additional challenges. To have navigated these so successfully speaks to the foresight and commitment of the senior management team which has left The Sukhothai Shanghai ideally placed to move forward in 2023. A long-awaited reopening to the international community and the hotel’s foreign patrons coincides with the hard work which has gone into making the hotel one of the trendiest locations on Shanghai’s social scene in recent years. Shanghai Spotlight was delighted to meet with The Sukhothai Shanghai’s Resident Manager, Tomonari Tai, to discuss the vision of the Sukhothai Shanghai, the secrets behind its undeniable appeal and what events and announcements we can expect from them in the year ahead.

上海的酒店业百花齐放，竞争十分激烈；与此同时，疫情的反复也为其带来了许多挑战。但上海素凯泰酒店能够在这样挑战重重的环境中稳步向前、保持高质量的服务水平，这离不开酒店管理团队的不懈努力以及对市场的精准把控。在上海这样一个国际化的时尚都市，上海素凯泰酒店深受魔都弄潮儿的喜爱。
最近，聚焦上海团队有幸与上海素凯泰酒店的两位人员进行了一次访谈，以便了解其酒店的理念、风格与服务内容。在与其驻店经理Tomonari Tai的交流中，我们对上海素凯泰酒店有了进一步的了解，趣味满分又新意满满。

More recently, The Sukhothai Shanghai has collaborated with famed British designer Tom Dixon to present high concept themed rooms to guests. Available in both studio rooms and executive suites until the end of February.
当下，上海素凯泰酒店携手英国知名设计师Tom Dixon，将环保理念融入酒店设计，打造舒适又绿色的酒店环境，为更多旅行爱好者以及艺术、设计和生活方式体验者带来全新的家外之家的风尚体验。即日起至2023 年 2 月 28 日，奇思之旅-Tom Dixon 二十周年主题房与鸡尾酒灵感体验在上海素凯泰酒店特别呈现。
This collaboration features some of the most iconic designs from Tom Dixon and create an entirely memorable and restive experience for guests which can’t be replicated with inferior quality designs.
本次主题客房选用了上海素凯泰酒店广受欢迎的两个房型-精选客房与豪华套房，其布置采用了 Tom Dixon 二十周年限定设计款来共同打造灵感空间，为旅居生活创造探索中的趣意，为环境友好和可持续发展贡献出一份力量。
Preparations are already underway to welcome back international tourists after a challenging couple of years. From the training of reception staff to the composition of the continental breakfast, attention to detail is fundamental in providing the highest level of service guests no matter how long they stay. Expectations are high for a significant increase in foreign visitors as 2023 progresses and an award-winning boutique hotel like The Sukhothai Shanghai is a natural choice for more discerning travelers. Key to any hotel attracting affluent tourists is the strength of their food and beverage offerings and this is another aspect that sets this hotel clearly above its rivals.
目前，上海素凯泰酒店正以极高的热情与期许欢迎着国际游客的到来。从接待人员的培训到欧陆早餐的搭配，酒店都做到精准的把控，希望对细节的精益求精能够为顾客的入住提供更加锦上添花的体验与感受。随着2023年后疫情的进一步放开，大家都热切地希望能与国际游客有更多的交流，而像上海素凯泰酒店这样的风尚酒店，也一定会因其极具竞争力的餐厅，时髦的设计元素与极其细致的服务打动顾客的心，吸引更多的国际游客前来入住。
Investing in new talent is essential to provide a premium offering, yet to do this during a pandemic takes special confidence in the strength of your brand and your position.
During 2022 The Sukhothai Shanghai brought in experienced new head chefs for both their Italian restaurant La Scala and the Thai inspired Urban Café, enabling a level of authenticity and excellence that other establishments will struggle to match.
Tomonari recognizes that Shanghai isn’t short of either Thai or Italian eateries, so what will elevate them in the eyes of Shanghai restaurant-goers and generate that desirability that leads to loyal customers?
2022年，上海素凯泰酒店为其意大利餐厅La Scala和泰国餐厅Urban Café分别迎来了新晋主厨——来自意大利的大厨Enrico De Martino和来自泰国的知名大厨Anchlee Luadkham的加入无疑为其增色不少。那么，究竟是什么使得其总能在一众餐厅中脱颖而出，牢牢抓住消费者的胃和心呢？
Chef Enrico De Martino
Chef Anchlee Luadkham
With the arrival of two experienced chefs joining the team, we sat down with The Sukhothai Shanghai’s internationally renowned Head Chef Duncan Feng to catch up with these exciting developments. With their La Scala fine Italian restaurant picking up a Black Pearl Restaurant Guide award in 2022 and Urban Café being recognized by Voyage as Best Hotel Restaurant, last year witnessed notable successes yet Chef Duncan is clearly keen to build on these achievements. In a highly competitive environment like the Shanghai’s luxury food and beverage scene, distinguishing yourself from your rivals involves constant innovation and dedication to quality. In our conversation we discussed the importance of a consistent vision, the necessity of delivering consistently high quality and the value of authenticity in elevating The Sukhothai Shanghai’s offerings above the crowded Shanghai restaurant scene.
伴随着两位经验丰富的知名大厨的加入，上海素凯泰酒店在餐饮部分也取得了令人斐然的成绩。在与国际知名主厨Duncan Feng访谈的过程中，我们了解到高端意大利餐厅La Scala获得了2022《黑珍珠餐厅指南》颁发的一钻餐厅奖，于此同时Urban Café也有幸被Voyage评为最佳酒店餐厅。纵使以往成绩斐然，但酒店行政总厨Duncan Feng依旧渴望能在此基础上更进一步。他讲到，想要在上海这个餐饮业竞争激烈的城市中脱颖而出，就必须要打破桎梏，不断创新进步，同时要求餐厅精益求精。以更美好的愿景与更高水准的要求去打造高端餐厅，并持续不断地为顾客提供优质服务与精致餐品。

“Many people love the intensity and passion of Thai food, but they often won’t have experienced its subtleties”, Tomonari tells us. “Chef Anchalee is originally from Chiang Mai, which produces one of the four regional cuisines of Thailand. Many customers won’t have experienced this, and this level of authenticity and expertise is definitely attractive to food lovers and connoisseurs in Shanghai’’. Chef Anchalee has already presented a well received Chef’s Table evening focusing on the delicacies of her home region. It’s success has led to demands for evenings based on the other regions, and this kind of added value is exactly what appeals to gourmands looking for more than a yellow curry or spaghetti bolognese to satisfy them.

“许多人喜欢泰国菜的热情似火，但其实细微之处的美妙也十分值得被挖掘。”,Tomonari说道，“主厨Anchalee来自清迈，清迈是泰国四大地区菜系之一。来自泰国本土的主厨以其专业性烹饪出地道的泰式风味美食，这对食客们和美食爱好者而言有着绝对的吸引力。”目前，主厨Anchalee已经推出了一个广受好评的主厨餐桌，“一厨一世界”，进行食物与心灵之间的对话，并重点介绍来自她的家乡清迈的美食。
One of the exciting concepts which creates genuinely unique experiences for guests and patrons is brand collaborations, of which The Sukhothai Shanghai has enjoyed several notable successes in recent months. ‘’At their best, collaborations create a synergy and spark that provides incredible unique experiences for our guests’’, Tomonari informs us. Last September The ZUK Bar hosted Sober Company and celebrity bartender Kazu while Chef Anchalee Luadkham presented a miniature banquet of excellent Thai appetizers for guests to experience.
若想为顾客制造独特且难忘的体验，品牌合作联名无疑是行之有效的一种方式。Tomonari告诉我们：“品牌之间的合作共创容易擦出令人眼前一亮的火花，这样巧妙的融合总能给顾客意想不到的惊喜。” 去年9月，The ZUK Bar 邀请了 Sober Company 、著名的调酒师Kazu与主厨Anchalee Luadkham共同打造了一场宴会，充满惊喜酒水深受顾客喜爱，泰式风味的餐点也俘获了顾客们的心。
Chef Duncan has long been a famous face on Shanghai’s food and beverage scene, both as a celebrity chef wowing audiences with his culinary creations on TV or as the founder of his own chef’s association, to help pass on his own high standards and expectations to other culinary professionals. Incorporating The Sukhothai Shanghai’s philosophy of creating ‘a home away from home’ into his working life, Chef Duncan and his team endeavor to provide delicious food in a healthy and authentic style that is certain to provoke and inspire!
主厨Duncan以及团队的融合菜系
主厨Duncan在上海餐饮界很有名气。他既是名厨，又是自己的厨师协会的创始人，将自己的技艺与功底传授给下一代人。酒店 "家外之家 "的理念不仅在住宿方面展现得淋漓尽致，在餐饮方面，打造"家外之家"也成为了主厨Duncan和他的团队研发出更多令顾客满意和惊喜的美食的目标之一。

In welcoming experienced professionals in Chef Anchlee Luadkham from Thailand and Chef Enrico De Martino from Italy, Chef Duncan’s team offers a level of craft and expertise able to eclipse the multitude of run-of-the-mill eateries throughout Shanghai and provide an authentic and genuinely memorable culinary experience. With both new chefs bringing many years of experience to their roles and eager to share their signature dishes with the hotel’s lucky clientele, 2023 promises to be an exciting year for fine dining at The Sukhothai Shanghai. With Spring menus already launched and tastings underway for their Summer offerings, expectations are high for a range of innovative dishes incorporating seasonal ingredients and expert know-how.
