The Bay Restaurant at the Dusit Resort
Pattaya is holding a white asparagus “Queen of Vegetables”
promotion, a fine dining experience, until June 22. On offer are a
variety of excellent white/green asparagus dishes. White asparagus is
known as the “Queen of Vegetables” in Europe. It is a seasonal
delicacy, harvested only in May and June, which makes it very rare on
menus in the Far East. White asparagus has a much more delicate taste
than green asparagus. The reason for this is that you have to pick the
asparagus before it grows out of the soil under sunlight; otherwise it
will turn violet and later green. So, don’t miss the chance to find
out the fine difference between white and green asparagus. Either way,
you’ll love asparagus! For reservations, please call (038) 425-611-7
ext. 2270-1.
