Dublin’s newest Thai/Asian restaurant was launched to much anticipation at an exclusive party a few weeks ago. Familiar faces from the modeling and sporting worlds were there to enjoy what was one of the best attended events in the city, not only launching the restaurant but to kick start the summer in style.
Guests were gretted with bongo players, acrobats, with the smoking area transformed into a Buddha haven for one Night only (it was the place to be)! DJ Mo Kelly was on the decks as the lucky guests were treated to KOH Signature Cocktails, champagne, & Beer with tantalizing Thai bites all night…
Koh is truly a one stop destination, offering a stylish lounge area for cocktails & drinks, a chic and contemporary restaurant serving authentic Asian cuisine and for the diner that wants that little extra: a resident DJ and late bar, this together with three private dining rooms, and Wi-Fi throughout, Koh is set to cater for every need of the young professional.
This is the first Dublin restaurant for trio - Conor Sexton, Conor Kilkenny and Eoin Pardy who have pooled their years of experience to develop this very personal concept. With experience with the Diep Le Shaker group, these guys have realised their ambition to offer a friendly local venue which delivers fantastic quality Thai/Asian food at great value in chic surroundings.
Grainne Weber Architects who were responsible for the G Hotel & the re-design of The Morrison have created a truly distinctive venue. The graffiti wall and Mark Whelehan’s ceiling mounted light sculpture are worth the trip alone. Trust me, it's all very Sex and the City.
A host of Irelands sporting stars attended - from RTE’s Des Cahill, GAA commentator Michael Lester, The Irish Rugby team, and on a rare night out the Leinster Rugby boys with their wife’s in tow who will be there to support their team mate Bernard Jackman- who’s wife’s family are behind the venture.
Models Aoife Cogan, Karena Graham, Sara Kavanagh and Sarah McGovern the latter with her husband to be, Kenny. They are due to marry in a lavish soiree in July. Leigh Arnold and Marcus Sweeney, Pamela Flood, Brian Ormond and Pippa O’Connor and the lovely Sile Nolan ,who will shortly be launching Dublin’s newest hotspot - Residence on Stephens Green.
