From Beef Wellington to truffle-infused ramen—it’s nearly impossible to cook them at home, so might as well have these dishes delivered from the best restaurants in the city.
During this time of almost-lockdown, many of us have turned to cooking for fun and, perhaps, to preserve our sanity. But sometimes, we can’t help but crave something that goes beyond our kitchen abilities.
Allow us to recommend some hard-to-cook meals that you may want to eat but don’t have enough energy nor skills nor the right ingredients to make. Thankfully, your favorite restaurants can prepare them for you and deliver straight to your doorstep. The list includes everything from comfort noodles to pastry-wrapped beef. Go on, pick up your phone and make a call now.
Treat yourself to this traditional English dish from Mandarin Oriental Bangkok’s signature dining room. Preparing this dish is a hard task for many home cooks (as you probably know from watching your share of cooking competition shows), so it’s best to leave the cooking to the experts.

The truffle is one fancy ingredient, and it may be a bit extravagant to buy a bulb when all you need is a few shavings to include in your noodles. Make things easier for yourself and just order a ready bowl from Michelin-recognized ramen restaurant Tsuta.

The thought of roasting meats never fails to whet your appetite, but it can be quite a downer just thinking of the long hours and tedious processes that it requires. Kimpton Maa-Lai Bangkok’s rooftop bar specializes in dishing out hot and flavorful racks of pork ribs, which they’ll willingly deliver to your front door. Prepare for some finger-licking goodness!

Tell us that you still have the energy to roll out some dough to make these moreish morsels after a long day at work. We didn’t think so. Save yourself from the trouble and have dim sum delivered from this Chinese restaurant at Bangkok Marriott Marquis Queen’s Park instead. Their wide-ranging menu includes tasty bites like steamed prawn dumplings and steamed chocolate buns.

Hold on, sandwiches are not that hard to make on your own. But, admittedly, your DIY sandwiches are probably not too far from simple sliced bread bought from a supermarket plus cheese and ham. Go for something more gourmet with this new healthy sandwich place on Soi LaSalle 46. Sandwich Garden offers a variety of fillings like piri piri chicken and falafel, which you may not want to make from scratch.

We all love panang curry but we also know how difficult it can be to make one. It takes multiple spices and delicate cooking techniques. All the hassles can be avoided if you just order from Spice Market at Anantara Siam Bangkok. You’re assured of authentic Thai fare sent to your home.

Chicken biryani is another dish that requires loads of ingredients, and a whole lot of marinating and cooking. The thought of it sounds tiring already! Cut out all the annoyance by ordering this Indian favorite from Haoma now.
