As you step further into the premise, you’ll find yourself arriving at an al fresco dining area dotted with bubble glass domes and dining tables.
There’s also a giant “tree” in center that sheds light to the area. Its “branches” are adorned with lanterns whose shades are made from traditional Thai fashee, wicker baskets used to cover food.

Having a private meal in a bubble glass dome is totally not something you can easily do in Thailand. At Lacol Khaoyai, guests can indulge in the novel experience of dining in transparent bubbles that boast panoramic views of the region’s mountainous landscape.

Whether it be a dinner date or a marriage proposal, the ornamentation of white roses inside the heart-shaped bubble glass domes will create a dining experience so romantic that your partner will remember the meal for a long time.

Wintery garden with an outdoor cinema underneath the starry sky
In addition to private glass domes, the restaurant also features a garden with several romantic corners where guests can chill out and breathe in some fresh air.
Take some time to stroll around the garden and look out for a relaxing corner to sit around and chit-chat with friends – maybe even while enjoying roasted marshmallows.

We’d also say there’s nothing better than sipping on a glass of ice-cold beer while enjoying the gentle breeze from the garden’s nice cold weather.

If you’re not really in the mood for talking, there’s also an outdoor theatre to chillax in at night. The Lacol Cinema offers more than just a regular set of seats, but reclining chairs where you can fully lie back and watch the film in the open-air.

Although, the starry sky above looks so stunning that it may momentarily distract your attention away from the moving pictures and sounds.

Undoubtedly, an outdoor screen with a 360-degree view of the starry sky will offer an incomparable movie experience that moviegoers cannot find from anywhere else in Thailand.
