Would you eat an expensive 3-course meal atop a treehouse? In Soneva Kiri Resort in Thailand, you could enjoy a meal prepared by an excellent chef with your three companions while sitting atop a tree in the Koh Kood forest. The best part? All of your food will be delivered to you via ziplining waiters.
Treepod dining is a unique experience you can only get at Soneva Kiri. If you're a guest of the resort, you could have the chance of dining at their treepods, a dining space up a 16 ft tree, made up of rattan and simple steel.
The ziplining waiters, of course, are the star of the dining experience. Ziplining is considered as an adventurous feat, but imagine waiters going back and forth with your food while traveling via zipline. A 3-course meal comprised of jungle themed Thai food is also one of the highlights-guests will enjoy savoring the mouthwatering cuisine while overlooking the impressive coastline and ocean waters of the Koh Kood Island.
The whole experience will make you feel nostalgic of your childhood where playing in treehouses is the dream. That inspiration is what drove Soneva Kiri to feature the treepod fine dining experience in their amenities-a first in the world, and one of the best restaurant experiences to date.
You don't have to worry about the acrobatic waiters, though. The wait staff is mostly composed of locals, and they are trained enough so they could perform such a difficult task without hiccups. Heck, they could even deliver a glass of wine while ziplining without you having to worry about any spill!
