The obscenely rich are gathering in Bangkok this weekend for a gala dinner at the Dome restaurant prepared by six three-star Michelin chefs. The meal will cost 1 million baht, or about US$29,000, per person plus tax and tip. Deepak Ohri, managing director of the Dome restaurant, says the diners will travel from Asia, Europe, the Middle East and the Untied States, and will include shipping, real estate and gaming magnates. Profits from the dinner will go to charity. Tthe main motive behind it will be to showcase Thailand as an upmarket tourism destination and investment target, Ohri said.
