Gourmet Discoveries: Chef Prin Polsuk and Chef Dave Pynt

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.
