“Unlike Sra Bua and Brasserie Europa, Niched was set to be an all-day-dining restaurant, the same food has to be served at lunch and dinner from midday to midnight. By doing this, Niche’s idea is to be relaxed and informal. When we have this concept, It’s so easy to go down the road we use to did before, giving burger, pad thai, and so on because people always order this and people will always be happy with it but they won’t remember it and they won’t come back for that”

By this matter, Chef James drawing upon a wealth of experience gained at five-star establishments to create an exciting concept where diners may choose their favorite ingredient and decide upon as Asian or Non-Asian presentation. The chef also encourages guests to make multiple selections in order to enjoy the tremendous variety on the menu.

“When you use a word like Pad thai. Automatically, in your mind, you know what it’s gonna be. To avoid any confusion. We make it same with Western food. We list a principle the ingredient, and that’s it.People can imagine how their dishes are going to be. I also want to make a portion smaller, so it gives people a chance to select a variety of dishes and compare” said Executive Chef.

“Fun Filled , informal Dining” is said to be a main concept of Niche, Guests can take pleasure in this fun-filled dynamic atmosphere in the air-conditioned restaurant with open kitchen or the outdoor terrace overlooking the lush green garden and free-form swimming pool.
