SIRIWAN “PLOY” SINPAN
Bar Manager, The O.S.S. Bar

Ploy found her passion for bartending by accident. While studying hotel management, she somehow ended up training at The Sukhothai Hotel and immediately fell in love with the craft. Once she got her degree, the first thing she did was apply for a bartending job at the hotel’s The Zuk Bar and fully honed her skills. Soon enough, Ploy was ready to set out to explore and gain more experiences in the bustling Bangkok cocktail scene. Her next stint was at Vesper as assistant bar manager before landing in her current role as bar manager about a year ago.

Ploy seeks inspiration from around her: from her colleagues, her customers, the various spirits and ingredients and the history of classic cocktails. For Ploy, bartending is not just about mixing drinks, it’s about the daily challenge that a bartender has to encounter. Every day in her life as a bartender is different. Even making the same drink is different on a different day.
