It also suits anyone hosting business partners or bringing along older relatives to a trade show. The Modern Chinese atmosphere and prices reaching up to 8,500 baht support a formal meal. Solo diners or pairs can still order dim sum for a lighter meal within a smaller budget.

Tips before you go
The most useful thing you can do is check whether there's a major event at IMPACT on the day you're visiting. On days with a trade show or concert, restaurants in the area get busy at the same time, both around lunch and right after the event ends, so booking a table in advance is worth the peace of mind.
One more thing to note on timing: the 8 to 12 minute walking times from the various halls are just the walk itself. On a day when a large crowd exits the halls at once, add another 5 to 10 minutes.
- On days with a major event, book a table in advance
- Avoid 12:00-13:30 if you don't want to wait
- Arrive before 21:00, since the restaurant closes at 22:00
- On days with a major event, add 5 to 10 minutes to the usual walking time
- For larger groups, ordering a variety of dim sum to share is better value than ordering individual dishes
