L ET’S MEET chance to see the “live cooking show” from our chefs, there is a terrific selection of pastas, pizzas, wines and a plethora of irresistible Italian dishes.

What is your full name and age? Andrias Ananta, 37 years old What do you like to do in your free time and why? Spend time with my son Bryant. He was born in Jakarta, Indonesia in April 3 years ago. When he was only a few days old, I had to leave for Beijing, China on a working assignment. I decided not to take him and his mum along due to his being such a tender age and knowing that it’s kind of difficult to move around with a very young infant. I only had a chance to see him once a year for the first two years of his life. Now that he and my wife are able to be with me, I’ve been frantically trying to catch up on those magical moments that I’d missed for the previous couple of years. Andrias Ananta What is your current Job Position? Resident Manager of Dusit Thani Hua Hin How long have you lived in Hua Hin or been coming to Hua Hin? Since April 2015 but I’ve been to Hua Hin several times for leisure visits and always been impressed. What did you know about Hua Hin before you moved here? Not too much, but I did some research before I took this role. I had experience in resort properties much earlier in my career, that was way back in 2001, but then spent the next 10 years or so in busy business cities, so it is good to come back to a resort property as it’s a completely different environment. What do you like most about your profession? Without doubt the customer service side of the job. It is always a great pleasure for me to see how happy our guests feel with all the services we provide for them, especially when we have exceeded their expect ][ۋ
