FIRST IMPRESSIONS

           The ambiance at Teeshot Bar strikes a
            perfect balance between sophistication and
           entertainment. Warm, recessed lighting
           enhances the sleek design, casting a golden
            glow across the space. At the heart of it lies
            the stunning island bar,  nished in polished

            gold metallic tones and surrounded by
            plush, white-upholstered stools – an ideal
            perch for sipping handcrafted cocktails like
            the rum and Malibu-based The Thaiger
           (THB 425) or the refreshing strawberry and
