Chow celebrates the most powerful recommendation of all: the one passed across a family table. Jimmy Mahakit (Isaan, Thailand) and Kunpheng "Ricki" Zhu (Jiangsu, near Shanghai) have each spent ten years as Sous Chefs at Chow. For one night, they cook together, each presenting dishes learned at home through watching, tasting, and being guided at the stove. These are home-learned recipes, passed down through families and remembered rather than written. That's word of mouth in its purest form.
Jimmy's cooking leans bold, herb-heavy, and grilled, with chilli heat and fermentation. Ricki's focuses on balance, braise, clarity, and precision. The evening follows Chow's signature format across eight shared courses: herb-led, grilled, fried, and braised, finishing with a composed dessert from each chef. Portions are substantial and designed for sharing. Then what begins as dinner becomes a proper Chow party, with matched cocktails flowing and a DJ building the energy.
Your ticket includes an eight-course sharing dinner and four half cocktails matched across the courses. Additional drinks and optional matched cocktail pairings are available for purchase.
