“There is something mesmerizing about food sizzling over
an open fire,” said Chef Rainer. “From the native American
concept of the sacred fire pit (bara-bicu) to Japanese hibachi,
meaning ‘fire bowl’, to Indonesian satay and Middle
Eastern shish kebabs, it has a global appeal and has existed
since time immemorial.”
Sands’ new menu has been beefed up to include a selection
of meats and seafood adaptable to the 8-Fire techniques.
Diners have a choice of Australian Wagyu beef and Black
Angus steaks, lamb cutlets, BBQ pork ribs, chicken breast
or veal cutlets. Fresh local seafood choices include lobster,
jumbo prawns, scallops and squid, as well as imported
Norwegian salmon and Australian barramundi.
“We can really showcase the true aromas and flavors of seafood
and prime cuts by using smoke, flaming liqueurs and
truffle spray,” said Chef Rainer. “And of course, the tableside
presentation is spectacular. It’s fun for all the family with the
sizzling fires in all directions, but it can also be a romantic
evening for two with sea breezes, soft sand and fine wine.”
From the chef’s garden come the ingredients for vegetarian
options including risottos, pizzas and casseroles, fresh
salads, and pasta dishes such as pumpkin gnocchi. And
among the many mouthwatering starters on the new menu
are tuna tartar, pan-fried foie gras, beef carpaccio, Louisiana
crab cakes (in green mango salad) and the overwhelming
“Seafood Symphony for 2”.
Sands Restaurant overlooks the sapphire sea of the Gulf of
Thailand from a secluded cove flanked by coral reefs. It is
one of three signature dining venues at the award-winning
Banyan Tree Samui resort, which is recognized as one of the

steep hillside and hosts 88 luxury villas, each with its own
private infinity pool.

terrace. The restaurant is open to Banyan Tree guests and
non-guests alike from 11:30am to 11pm, seven days a week.
Reservations are recommended.
