The Travelling Chefs Series
At Home with Award-Winning Chef Jordy Navarra at Siri Sala
Siri Sala opens its doors and gives its warmest welcome to Chef Jordy Navarra and his team from acclaimed Toyo Eatery in Manila as they live in the villa, shop for local produce, mingle with guests and serve their amazing Tasting Menu with a local twist over three dinners on 13, 14 and 16 May 2022.
In The Travelling Chefs Series, Siri Sala Private Thai Villa invites chefs to travel to historic Bangkok Noi where our home and kitchens become theirs. Diners come to Siri Sala for an intimate cultural exchange through food, learn about the chefs’ passions and of course enjoy their unique flavor offerings.
Unlike other chef’s table events held at restaurants, The Travelling Chefs Series will be held in an elegant Thai home. Each event will be crafted so that guests can exchange with the chefs, and each other.
Some restaurants are lucky enough to say that a renowned chef has visited them, but how many can claim that the chef has taken over their entire home? Not many, but this is what the Travelling Chefs Series at Siri Sala Private Thai Villa is all about.
Siri Sala invites chefs who embody the roots and the evolutions of their food culture to come and stay as our guests. They in turn will explore our unique corner of Bangkok and create a few special dinner experiences that highlights their craft and our storied locales.
In the coming months, look for the return of one of Bangkok’s favorite female chefs, a popular celebrity, and cooks who will showcase regional and international cuisines like they would in their own homes.
