Chef and restaurateurs Gaggan Anand, and Thomas and Mathias Sühring have embarked on a partnership with streetwear purveyor Carnival to open CDGRE (pronounced cee-dee-gree), a lifestyle coffee shop and restaurant in Siam Paragon. Consisting of three different zones, this new venture is dedicated to the founders’ “expertise and knowledge” for coffee and food, plus snazzy takes on street fashion.
The first zone is a slow bar that focuses on specialty cuppas made from beans Chef Gaggan sourced both locally and internationally. Next up is a cozy eatery that churns out comfort fare put together by Thomas and Mathias Sühring, whose eponymous restaurant is the only one from Thailand to make it on the World’s 50 Best Restaurants list for 2021. Highlights to anticipate include pork knuckles, crab spätzle, as well as pastries and desserts like Crème Brulée Berliner and Sneakers Strietzel.
Then there is a gift shop operated by the Carnival crew, which has come up with an exclusive collection that includes a wide range of merchandise, from apparel, to bags, to coffee-making equipment.
