Contemporary Thai fine dining restaurant Khum Hom, led by renowned Chef Ian Kittichai, is set to welcome the 2-Michelin-Starred Guest Chef Cédric Burtin from restaurant Cedric BURTIN, for a Thai & French culinary experience, elevating the finest Thai ingredients and flavours.
Just for 3 nights, from 21 to 23 November, guests at Khum Hom will be treated to a unique experience where Chef Ian Kittichai and Chef Cédric Burtin will embark them on a 7-course or 9-course journey to the garden of delights, revisiting the cuisine from the 4 regions of Thailand and reinterpreted with French culinary techniques.
The 4-hands culinary experience will start smoothly with Chef Ian’s amuse-bouche, Dok Jolk; a crisp lotus flower tuile with som-za curd and a Phetchaburi palm sugar tamarind sauce, followed by Chef Burtin’s amuse-bouche; mackerel lacquered with fresh herbs of the garden. To follow is Soi-Ju; a hand-cut Wagyu tartare served with compressed Yasotorn watermelon and roasted rice powder, then Seared River Prawn, with black garlic, and citrus zest, carrot, ginger and carrot confit, and Chef Ian’s secret Gaeng Per; a seared diver scallop in a light coconut-based dill sauce topped with freshwater wolffia. For the interlude, prior to the main course, Chef Burtin has specially curated for the occasion a seared duck goose liver with a creamy sabayon. The journey will continue with a delightful Striped Red Mullet lacquered in its juice, an onion confit, and red and yellow peppers. The main dishes continue with Pad Ai Ku, a stir-fried Angus tenderloin with a house-blended chilli paste and kaffir lime leaves by Chef Ian. Finishing on a high sweet note with Kanom Tarn, a Phraya Rum-infused palm cake served with Homsuwan pineapple and fresh coconut cream.
Chef Burtin’s formative years were spent on his family’s farm in Saône-et-Loire, France, giving him a deep connection to where food originates. He enjoyed an intense and advanced education through working in the kitchens of several leading restaurants in France, before opening his own restaurant, L’Amaryllis, in 2005. Just two years after opening, he was awarded his first Michelin Star. In 2023, he added a second star.
