Lying in the fame shadows of Banyan Tree\'s rooftop Vertigo restaurant, the hotel group\'s signature Saffron eatery quietly serves up sweeping panoramas from its 51st to 52nd floor perch to view-hunters in the know. The restaurant offers authentic Thai dishes, with the a la carte choices including classic appetizers, Thai \"yum\" salads, soups and curries, with convenient set menus for bring-it-on diners. Full length windows hold in the air-conditioning, good for offsetting the spices while giving unobstructed views of the Chao Phraya River and city skyline. The attached Latitude Lounge & Bar on the lower floor offers just as good a vista as Moon Bar (can you really tell the difference between a view from the 51st or 61st floors?) with a fraction of the camera happy tourists.
