Helmed by Spanish chef Joan Tana Dot, the Bangkok restaurant received a special nod from Spain’s tourism industry earlier this year
Nestled on the fourth floor of Chatrium Residences Sathorn, Albricias is a Mediterranean fine dining restaurant that welcomes diners with fresh ingredients and Spanish recipes like patatas bravas and paellas with innovative twists, as well as perfectly crafted desserts.
The word albricias in Spanish means “joy” and is usually used to describe a bearer of good news. Aptly so, this year, Chatrium’s Albricias became the first Spanish restaurant in Thailand to receive the prestigious “Restaurantes de España Award 2022” from the Spanish Institute for Foreign Trade (ICEX).
Walking into the restaurant, you are greeted by nicely spaced out dining tables overlooking the residence’s serene pool area. The lighting is dim, though not dark, further contributing to the dining room’s relaxed setting that’s perfect for a romantic date or an intimate dinner with friends.
Helmed by executive Spanish chef Joan Tana Dot, Albricias offers a refined and exciting Spanish-Mediterranean experience. One of the menu highlights is The Russian King, featuring thick, fresh slices of king salmon, warayaki-style, served with Nikkei potato, guacamole emulsion, yuzu gel, ikura, kikos corn nuts, and crystal bread crostini. Hokkaido scallops a la plancha with Joselito Iberico ham is another delicious option for seafood lovers, while the premium Spanish paella Delta de l’ebre Fukuoka with Iberico pork belly, organic eggplant, nori seaweed, and bonito dashi ponzu is definitely a must is you’ve come to Albricias.

Pair your dinner with a nice Spanish wine from an extensive list of options, and don’t forget to leave room, or make room, for dessert—perhaps the famed Churros con Chocolate or La Torrija, the chef’s favourite childhood dessert that’s a cross between french toast and bread pudding.
