Swiss-born David Hartwig, new Head Chef at IGNIV Bangkok, was handpicked by IGNIV´s founding chef Andreas Caminada to bring the concept's unique joie de vivre to diners in Bangkok.

"A meal at IGNIV is like visiting friends - friends who want you to experience the best time and make you feel at home. At IGNIV Bangkok, guests can expect a thought-through, but easy and not stuffy, full experience in terms of choice of dishes, cooking techniques products, flavor profile and balance of seasoning. The use of fresh and top-quality ingredients is very important to me and Bangkok has many fresh ingredients to choose from," said David Hartwig, Head Chef at IGNIV Bangkok by Andreas Caminada.
