Chef Jacky Cui from the celebrated Yun Pavilion at Conrad Guangzhou
Bangkok has never been short of good Chinese restaurants. Yet every so often, a visiting chef reminds us that the craft behind Cantonese cuisine still holds the power to surprise.
That moment arrived recently at the Millennium Hilton Bangkok, where the riverside hotel welcomed guest Chef Jacky Cui from the celebrated Yun Pavilion at Conrad Guangzhou for a short but memorable culinary collaboration.
Chef Cui, known in Guangzhou for his refined take on classic Cantonese cooking, brought with him the quiet confidence of a dim sum master. Rather than simply presenting dishes, he chose to share his craft. The highlight of the visit was an intimate Dim Sum Masterclass, offering guests a rare opportunity to step behind the kitchen doors and learn the delicate techniques that define authentic Cantonese dumplings.

The highlight of the visit was an intimate Dim Sum Masterclass, offering guests a rare opportunity to step behind the kitchen doors and learn the delicate techniques that define authentic Cantonese dumplings.
Under his guidance, participants discovered that dim sum is far more than bite-sized delicacies. Each dumpling, fold and filling carries a tradition refined over generations.
The experience then continued where Cantonese cuisine truly belongs — at the dining table.
The collaboration culminated in a special Sunday Brunch on March 1, where Chef Cui’s creations were woven into a generous spread of international favourites. The result was a satisfying balance between refined Cantonese craftsmanship and the relaxed indulgence Bangkok brunch-goers have come to expect.
Priced at THB 2,884 nett, the brunch offered guests a chance to explore these flavours against one of the city’s most recognisable backdrops: the gentle sweep of the Chao Phraya River.
Appropriately titled “East Meets Riverside,” the event brought a small taste of Guangzhou to Bangkok — and reminded diners that great cuisine, much like the river itself, travels effortlessly across borders.
