From the smoky grills of Singapore to the soulful kitchens of Bangkok, Chef Prin Polsuk of Samrub Samrub Thai joins forces with Chef Dave Pynt of Burnt Ends for a bold and unexpected culinary exchange.
Chef Prin is a quiet force in Thai cuisine, deeply rooted in culinary history and cultural storytelling. Samrub Samrub Thai was awarded a Michelin star in 2025 and was ranked #47 on Asia’s 50 Best Restaurants in 2025.
A pioneer of modern barbecue, Chef Dave Pynt reimagines wood-fired cooking with instinct and precision. His Michelin-starred Burnt Ends, featured on both Asia’s and World’s 50 Best, turns fire and smoke into a culinary art form.
Together, these two masters ignite a one-night-only collaboration of smoke, spice, and soul where tradition meets technique – only at the 25th World Gourmet Festival.
