New luxury ocean-view eatery to open in Phuket

The Nai Harn is one of the chicest beachfront addresses in Phuket, tucked away in the south of the Thai island, away from the maddening crowds.

Now the Nai Harn is set to open a new luxury rooftop dining experience overlooking the ocean.




The new eatery, to open next month, will be known as Prime @ Rock Salt and will serve only 20 diners per sitting. It is designed a venue for guests and visitors to celebrate special occasions.

The Nai Harn, Phuket’s only member of Leading Hotels of the World, is a gastronomic destination in its own right and Prime will be located on the roof of the already popular Rock Salt eatery.

Highlights will include sunset dinners and private events for small groups, utilising a wood-fired oven and high-end barbecue grill.

“Prime @ Rock Salt is a new dining destination for Phuket and you could not ask for a better setting," says hotel GM Frank Grassmann.

“Combining the stunning setting with an exceptional menu, Prime is set to become the ultimate setting for unforgettable evenings, including romantic dinners and exclusive events."

Highlights will include the Nai Harn's home-made smoked chorizo sausage fired in a furnace, succulent KlongPhai/chicken,and yoghurt-marinated Bultarra lamb.

For an intimate feast, couples can share a 270-day Black Onyx Angus côte de boeuf, cooked over flames and oak chips, or indulge in barbecued-glazed short ribs, slow-cooked for 48 hours then finished in the wood-fired oven.

An extensive selection of fine wines – hand-picked by wine critic James Suckling – is available.

Prime joins beachfront Rock Salt restaurant; Cosmo Restaurant and Bar and Hansha sushi and sahsimi bar as Nai Harn dining options.

I stayed here last year - and it is an outstanding resort in all aspects.
