The Eastern & Oriental Express, A Belmond Train will launch its three-night Wild Malaysia journeys on April 28, featuring the best of the region’s cuisine. Three Michelin-starred chefs from Asia will join Culinary Curator Chef André Chiang to showcase exceptional dishes on these special journeys.
Entitled Tastes of Tomorrow: A Culinary Gathering with Chef André Chiang, Chiang is joined by Chef Vicky Cheng of restaurant Wing and VEA in Hong Kong (April 28), Chef Jason Liu of restaurant LING LONG in Beijing and Shanghai (July 28); and Chef Jungsik Yim of restaurant Jungsik in Seoul and New York (September 8) – each chef will share their kitchen secrets and offer guests a unique culinary experience.
Onboard, the chefs will craft menus using regional ingredients and spices that tell the story of the land. Alongside Chef Chiang’s menu, the guest chefs will each prepare a signature dish reflecting the region’s heritage. On the final evening, they will join forces for a special four-hands dinner, celebrating the blend of friendship, flavour, and Malaysia’s local cuisine.
Furthermore, bartender and mixologist Shelley Tai will craft a unique cocktail menu for each gala dinner onboard, complementing the chefs’ diverse flavours with her own creations inspired by Singapore’s vibrant culture and history. Guests can also join the chefs in the Observation Car for an intimate conversation about their creative process, accompanied by live Malaysian jazz.
In addition, guests are invited to join each chef on curated offboard excursions. These include a guided tour of Taman Negara National Park, offering exclusive insights into their inspirations, philosophies, and the artistry behind their creations.
