The first thing to know about Duet by David Toutain is context: a high-rise, view-conscious room in Bangkok, Thailand, matched with the ambitions of a contemporary fine-dining restaurant. What matters most is chef-led composition, pacing and a distinct point of view; a luxury, special-occasion price point makes it a restaurant to choose deliberately, not accidentally. Michelin selection gives it a credible place in the dining conversation, even without the expectation or formality of a starred meal.
