Bangkok sees plenty of collaborative dinners, but few arrive with quite this much purpose behind them. On June 10, Dusit Thani Bangkok hosts Her Future, Our Promise. A Dinner of Hope, bringing together six acclaimed chefs for a seven-course fundraising dinner in support of Friends of Thai Daughters, an organisation helping vulnerable girls in Northern Thailand access education and long-term support to prevent trafficking and exploitation.
Chef Andrea Susto of Cannubi by Umberto Bombana leads the evening alongside chefs Deepanker from Haoma, Tap from Restaurant Coda, Thav from 80/20, Napol from Nawa Thai Cuisine and Steve from I-SANG.
The menu moves through tomato water porridge with caviar, Hokkaido scallops with fermented beans, local squid with nam prik-black ink, uni fusilli with seafood jus, Japanese mackerel in coconut curry and duck pithivier with holy basil, before closing with limoncello baba. The evening also includes a wine pairing, a cocktail reception and a charity auction featuring luxury hotel stays and dining experiences. Most importantly, every baht raised goes directly towards Friends of Thai Daughters and its work across Thailand.
June 10 from 6pm. B8,800 net per person or B65,600 net per table of eight. Lumpini Room, Dusit Thani Bangkok
