The White House
Surprisingly the duo managed to combine Modern Latvian Cuisine with Tropical Thai and Japanese flavors such as the “Grilled Mackerel” paired Japanese Spicy Wasabi Sour and the “Duck Liver Tortellini” with Blue Cheese and Mango Moscato or the “Dowry Chest (chocolates)” with Matcha Coconuts Cooler.
With a name as memorable as ‘The White House,’ it’s no wonder why this new restaurant has been the talk of the town over the last few weeks.
Located on Sukhumvit 16, The White House specialises in modern Latvian cuisine by Chef-owner Alexksandrs Nasikailovs. If the name rings familiar, it is likely you know Chef Alex from his time at Baltic Blunos, where he helmed the kitchen alongside Chef Martin Bluno.
Now, together with equally creative head mixologist Kei Sawada (formerly of Salon du Japonisant), The White House presents both a very interesting food and beverage program. There’s a more casual setting downstairs with live music and a la carte options, and a finer dining setting upstairs with a tasting menu to suit. Highlights from the latter 9-course option include Duck Liver Tortellini, Tasmanian Lamb Rack, and North Atlantic Cod with Black Mussels. The experience is only complete with the cocktail pairing by Kei Sawada, which is extremely well worth it as far as cocktail pairings go.
