Chim's Young Chef

I was honoured to be invited to CHIM’s YOUNG CHEF at Aston 31 where 5 new generation celebrity chefs teamed up to bring to patrons a modern dining experience.

The dinner consisted of a seven-course menu with wine pairing, created by the following chefs:

Chef Zra – Aston : Dining Room & Bar (Sukhumvit 31)
Chef Mirco Keller – Water Library (Chamchuri Square)
Chef Daniel Bucher – The Reflexions (Plaza Athenee)
Chef Angela Brown – Park Society (Sofitel So Bangkok)
Chef Nan Bunyasaranand – Little Beast (Thonglor)

They are the new generation of celebrity chefs, teaming up to make this dinner most memorable. Lots of creativity in making these unique and delectable dishes!

The event was held at Aston Dining Room and Bar. Singaporeans, this is not the Aston Western food which you have back home.

Aston Dining Room and Bar is a modern European-style restaurant with a massive kitchen and the restaurant resembles a theatre for chefs to perform and entice you. It all makes for a memorable feast. At Aston, they will only seat 28 guests at one dinner, ensuring a unique and personal experience.

The 5 Amuse Bouche

Every item here is specially curated for this special event, so you won’t find the items on any menu in the world.

Smoked Ocean Trout, Beetroot, Heriloom Tomato, Apple by Chef Angela Brown from Park Society (Sofitel SO Bangkok). Fresh Salmon perfectly seared. Not too raw, not too cooked. Topped with caviar. Ooooo….

Sunchoke Veloute, Uni Cream by Chef Nan Bunyasaranand from Little Beast. Light and hearty cream soup.

Lobster Civet, Leek, Baby Vegetables, Lobster Emulsion by Chef Daniel Bucher from Reflexion (Plaza Athenee Bangkok). I was blown away by this juicy and tender lobster.

Duck Breast, Corn, Green Herbs by Chef Zra Jiraratana from Aston 31. Nicely seared and flavoured duck which was tender.

Sorbet by Chef Nan Bunyasaranand from Little Beast

Pineapple, White Chocolate, Marshmallow by Chef Mirco Keller from Water Library Chamchuri Square. It’s amazing how these 3 ingredients managed to blend so well together. So delicious that I would have another if they had extra.

What an amazing dining experience it was. Delicious food by celebrity chefs in a beautiful restaurant. Couldn’t have asked for more.
