Four nights of refined coastal gastronomy and creative collaborations will be staged from August 12-15, 2026, featuring highly acclaimed Michelin-starred chefs from Bo.lan, Andō, Maison Dunand and more.

PHUKET, THAILAND - Media OutReach Newswire - 23 July 2026 - Some of the deepest conversations happen over food - the kind that pull you in close and ensure you stay a little longer than planned. This August, these conversations will become even more meaningful at the "Luxury Dining Series, Across the Table" - a collection of immersive epicurean experiences unfolding across six extraordinary destinations in Asia.

"Across the Table" - Iconic Chefs Come Together for Luxury Dining Series at The Naka Island, Phuket

One of these six destinations will be hosted from August 12-15, 2026, at The Naka Island, a Luxury Collection Resort & Spa, Phuket, the five-star sanctuary nestled on an idyllic island in the Andaman Sea, where some of the region's leading Michelin-starred chefs will join hands for four nights of culinary celebrations and collaborations.

A Gathering of Gastronomic Visionaries

The Luxury Dining Series brings together visionary guest chefs Duangporn "Bo" Songvisava and Dylan Jones from Bangkok's iconic Bo.lan, Agustin Ferrando Balbi, chef-founder of Andō in Hong Kong, and Arnaud Dunand Sauthier, chef-founder of Maison Dunand in Bangkok, alongside mixology maestros Sudarat "Taln" Rojanavanich of Bar Us and Jane Kaew-Yod, co-founder of Lay Heritage Cocktails Space.

They will join The Naka Island, Phuket's own highly acclaimed Chef Joseph William Talbot, Chef Ratchanee "Kob" Nu-On, and Mixologist Adi Sukasta, along with culinary artists and mixologists from across the Marriott portfolio—including Pastry Chef Sylvain Constans from The Ritz-Carlton, Bangkok, Chef Laongdao "Aong" Tohkhot of Phulay Bay, a Ritz-Carlton Reserve, Krabi, and Mixologist Fransiska Siregar from The St. Regis Jakarta—for a series of mesmerizing, multi-hand dining and cocktail experiences spanning four engaging, interactive evenings.

Four Idyllic Evenings, Four Enchanting Chapters

• August 12 - "The Art of Culinary Discovery & Craft Brew Experience" will be hosted by chefs Agustin Ferrando Balbi and Joseph William Talbot at the resort's Multi-Purpose Sala, with handcrafted pass-around bites and live stations inspired by island life, paired with Phuket's finest craft beers.
• August 13 - "The Grand Banquet: Eight-Hand Dinner" will be staged on the Beach Lawn, as chefs Agustin Ferrando Balbi, Arnaud Dunand Sauthier, Joseph William Talbot, and Sylvain Constans come together for an exceptional, wine-paired menu that showcases the essence of Phuket beneath the Andaman sky.

Beyond the Table: Uncover Phuket's Culture and Crafts

Alongside these four epicurean evenings, guests are invited to a series of experiences that will connect them with the authentic essence of the island. A Gin Distillery Tour and hands-on Gin Making Workshop, a Dye Textile Workshop rooted in local artisan techniques, and a sunset catamaran excursion along the Andaman coast will highlight the natural, cultural and culinary wonders of Phuket. Every celebration extends into the evening with a curated line-up of cocktail experiences, including a bar takeover by Bar Us and a special cocktail collaboration with The St. Regis Jakarta, bringing fresh energy and creative pairings to The Naka Island, Phuket.
