Thai Airways introduces dishes with focus on local sourcing and sustainable purchasing
The “Caviar Experience” returns to Royal
Silk Business Class, featuring Italian caviar
Thai Airways is enhancing its inflight experience with upgraded dining across all classes, blending luxury with sustainability. Backed by its extensive hospitality expertise, Thai Airways is introducing innovative dishes while prioritizing local sourcing and sustainable purchasing.
First Class passengers can enjoy the “Tom Yum Kung Lobster Set,” a full course serving of succulent lobster in hot and sour broth accompanied by locally sourced Thai Jasmine Rice from the Chaipattana Foundation. The pre-order meal is presented with side dishes such as traditional chilli paste, crispy chopped fish meat and fresh vegetables.
In Royal Silk Business Class, the “Caviar Experience” returns, offering a 30-gram tin of Giaveri Beluga Siberian Caviar and a 10-gram tin of Giaveri Siberian Classic Caviar paired with refined international dishes.
Harvested from Italy, the Giaveri caviar is farmed in freshwater sources for more than 12 years, resulting in premium roes served alongside a selection of tuna tartare, avocado tartare, jumbo crab tian with spicy truffle dressing, grilled hokkaido poached tiger prawn with green apple and foie gras laab.
Not forgetting desserts, passengers can experience KanVela Chocolate. Served alongside a selection of beverages, the artisanal Thai-grown chocolate provides the perfect finishing touch.

Reimagining Thai street food
To make Thai flavours more inflight-friendly, the airline has teamed up with award-winning chef Bo Songvisava (Asia’s Best Female Chef 2013) to create a fusion of local dishes with a modern twist. Signature dishes such as grilled pork balls are reimagined and paired with rolls or buns for an approachable yet authentic experience.
Thai Airways has also partnered with Dusit Foods to bring “Streets to Sky” menus to the world. Street food classics, such as massaman chicken curry, are redefined using innovative culinary techniques to maintain bold flavours even after reheating at altitude.
Prioritizing local
Thai Airways is prioritizing local sourcing and recyclable materials for amenity kits through its “Good Taste for a Good Cause” campaign. The airline supports local farmers by purchasing premium agricultural products at above-market prices, fostering long-term economic sustainability within communities. New amenity kits, designed by Thai-based silk brand Jim Thompson, feature 12 unique designs inspired by Thai heritage.
