Chef Kelvin will work with the luxury resort to design special dining experiences that highlight sustainability for this event. The menus will showcase locally sourced ingredients, such as fresh produce from the resort’s JW Garden. They will also use zero-waste cooking techniques to create healthy dishes that promote wellness and inclusivity.

The culinary adventure begins on November 17 with a five-course dinner at Kaashi, the resort’s treetop restaurant. Guests will enjoy breathtaking views of the Indian Ocean while savoring dishes that blend Indian, Thai, and Chinese influences. Signature dishes will include Pani Puri, Tom Yum, and Char Siu Wagyu Short Rib, celebrating Chef Kelvin’s diverse heritage.

On the second evening, diners will have another five-course menu at the resort’s over water restaurant, Hashi/Shio. Each dish tells a unique story of global fusion, highlighting Chef Kelvin’s creativity and culinary expertise.

The final day features an interactive zero-waste cooking class at Aailaa, the resort’s all-day dining venue. In this class, guests will learn to craft delicious dishes while minimizing food waste. The focus will be on using fresh herbs and ingredients from the JW Garden.
