Chilly blue neon lights announce the entrance of ViV Bar & Restaurant, where chefs send delicate Thai fare into a lounge cast in sleek lights reminiscent of Bangkok’s evening skyline. Silver light fixtures shine a spotlight onto dishes of thai sausage fried rice and tender duck, pineapple, and bell peppers bathed in red curry sauce. From behind a marble bar, mixologists sling drinks that range from imported beers and sake to cocktails composed of fruit pulp, spirits, and not-from-concentrate ghosts.
