About The Smokaccia Laboratory

At The Smokaccia Laboratory in Phuket Thailand, every detail is guided by a simple philosophy: to create an evening that brings joy, wonder, and lasting memories.

 

Founded by Chef Luca Mascolo and Brigitta Houkamp, The Smokaccia Laboratory is a reflection of their shared passion for hospitality, beauty, and creativity. Chef Luca, awarded for his work as a Culinary Scientist, uses refined techniques to bring out the true character of each ingredient, often in ways that surprise and delight, where nothing is quite as it first appears.

 

Together with beverage and service director Massimo Zos, who curates exquisite pairings to complement each dish, they’ve created an experience that feels both personal and extraordinary.

 

Guests can choose between elegant table seating for a romantic, more intimate atmosphere, or take a seat at the open kitchen counter, where they can feel the energy of the kitchen, watch the chefs in action, and witness the final touches as each dish comes to life. Alongside a dedicated team, they bring warmth, creativity, and soul to every night at Smokaccia; where each dish tells a story...
