Days of Ukrainian cuisine in Bangkok are coming

A unique, original, a wide variety of tastes - this is how Ukrainian cuisine is seen by everyone who is familiar with it.

If you have been dreaming to become its connoisseur for a long time, but didn’t have such an opportunity, the Embassy of Ukraine in the Kingdom of Thailand together with Yurii Kovryzhenko  -  a well-known Ukrainian chef, gastro diplomat, whose author's molecular borsch astounded the Michelin Guide, invite you to enjoy the Ukrainian buffet dinner as a part of the event "Days of Ukrainian cuisine in Bangkok".

Kovryzhenko is the Ambassador of Ukrainian cuisine worldwide and promotes national gastronomy on all continents. He respects homemade traditional recipes, but at the same time, he's always looking for modern and "haute" variations.

He came to gastronomy from the world of sculpture, and therefore his dishes are characterized by special aesthetics and thorough attention to the smallest details.

Kovryzhenko was educated in the best culinary schools in Europe - Ecole Ritz Escoffier, Ferrandi Paris, Basque Culinary Center, and others and has received many awards and prizes: Global Chef Awards 2017, Ambassador of Taste for the Global Gastronomy 2021, 2022, Gold Medal Best of Gastronomy 2021. He is also a member of the Order of Disciple Escoffier International.

Kovryzhenko's name is strongly associated with Ukrainian cuisine, both in Ukraine and abroad.

He promotes national gastronomy at official events at Embassies, international forums and competitions, and cooks for top officials and the political elite.

Kovryzhenko cooked borsch in 30 countries of the world on four continents. He opened restaurants of Ukrainian cuisine in Seoul (Korea) and Tbilisi (Georgia).

Currently, he is opening the Ukrainian neo-bistro Mriya in London, which he calls the "cultural and gastronomic embassy of Ukraine".

Given his experience and high academic professional education, he considers Ukrainian cuisine to be one of the most difficult in terms of cooking technology.

At the time of the start of Russia's war against Ukraine, he was in London as part of his gastronomic mission. He is actively involved in charitable activities to raise funds for Ukraine. In two months, he held more than 20 charity dinners and raised more than £500,000. Highlights include a 1,000-person lunch at the Grosvenor House JW Marriott and dinner with Jamie Oliver.

Do not miss your chance to talk to our chef in a friendly atmosphere and take an unforgettable gastro tour to Ukraine at The Emerald Hotel on September 17, 18.00 - 22.00 hrs.

For reservation, please call 02-2764567 ext. 8413. The restaurant entrance fee for 1 person is 1,299 Thai baht. 50% of the collected charity funds will be transferred through the United24 fundraising platform for Ukraine’s needs.
