A Luxurious Afternoon in Bangkok: My Dessert Time at LV The Place

Walking through the bustling streets of downtown Bangkok, I took the BTS Skytrain and got off at Chit Lom station. As I crossed the skywalk, the sunlight perfectly illuminated the glass facade of Gaysorn Amarin Shopping Center. This was the stop I was most looking forward to on this trip—LV The Place Bangkok.

LV is not just about bags anymore; they have now ventured into art exhibitions, cafes, and even fine dining. For someone like me who loves both traveling and taking photos for social media, it’s truly a feast for the eyes and the palate.

☕ Le Café Louis Vuitton: A Dessert Lover’s Paradise

The moment I stepped into the café on the first floor, my eyes were immediately drawn to the wooden Monogram floor and the lush greenery filling the space—a setting so exquisite that it made me speak softly. The staff greeted me with a smile, and I chose a seat by the window. This place isn’t just a coffee shop; it’s also a showcase for art pieces.

The dessert display was lined with pastries, each embossed with LV’s iconic Monogram pattern. In the end, I ordered a Chocolate Star Blossom Cake paired with their signature Cha Thai Latte. The chocolate cake melted in my mouth with a hint of caramel aroma, reminiscent of the gentle Bangkok afternoon sunshine; the Thai milk tea perfectly blended spices and fresh milk, rich but not overwhelming.

I especially loved the Mango Sticky Rice Fizz, a creative fusion of a sparkling drink and a Thai dessert, like capturing summer in a glass.

🛍️ Second Floor Exhibition: Walking Through a Fashion Tunnel

After my meal, I took the spiral staircase to the second floor, where I was greeted by an exhibition space called **“Visionary Journeys.”** It felt like stepping into a journey, with each room telling a different chapter of the LV brand: a luggage tunnel, classic bags, collaborative artworks... every step made me feel like I was drifting through the world of fashion.

At the end of the exhibition was a “Souvenir Room,” where I drew a limited-edition LV washi tape, like a lucky capsule toy that brought a smile to my face.

🍽️ Gaggan at Louis Vuitton: If You’re Ready for a Luxurious Feast

If your budget allows, don’t miss the Gaggan at Louis Vuitton restaurant on the third floor. Created by Michelin-starred chef Gaggan Anand, this is a temple of creative cuisine where every dish is not just food but a performance of art. Although I couldn’t get a reservation this time, I heard their dinner set is a five-sense adventure—from sour, sweet, salty, spicy to “surprise,” turning dining into a story.

🧭 Nearby Attractions Recommendations: Shopping, Praying, and Strolling All in One

After leaving LV, I walked a few minutes to the Erawan Shrine, lit an incense stick, tied a blessing bracelet, then strolled around CentralWorld, and finally took a walk in Lumphini Park, letting the day’s fashion and food experiences slowly settle.

🎒 Tips
1. Be sure to make a reservation: Whether it’s Le Café or Gaggan restaurant, seats are limited, so it’s best to book online at least two weeks in advance.
2. Dress nicely: This is a fashion sanctuary—how can you not dress up for the camera?
3. Budget generously: A cup of coffee costs about ฿280–฿400, desserts start at around ฿500, and a full set runs about ฿2,000 Thai Baht, but this sense of ceremony is worth it.

📌 Summary: A Dual Luxury Journey of Sight and Taste

LV The Place Bangkok is not just a brand showcase but the new landmark in Bangkok I most recommend. Here, fashion is no longer just a product; it’s a lifestyle you can eat, photograph, and feel.

I recorded an afternoon with my taste buds and captured a memory with my photos. If you happen to be in Bangkok, be sure to set aside half a day to experience this sweet, luxurious, and unforgettable travel moment.
