Ubud, Bali – April 14, 2025 – Apéritif Restaurant, the acclaimed fine-dining destination nestled in the heart of Ubud, is redefining luxury dining in Bali through an exciting series of collaborations with internationally celebrated Michelin-starred chefs. These exclusive culinary events bring world-class gastronomy to the island, offering discerning diners the chance to indulge in once-in-a-lifetime tasting menus crafted by some of the world’s most decorated culinary talents.
Renowned for its elegant 1920s colonial charm and refined “borderless” cuisine, Apéritif has long been a leader in Bali’s fine dining scene. Now, by opening its kitchen to Michelin-starred and other guest chefs, the restaurant is raising the bar yet again, delivering an unmatched culinary experience rooted in global innovation and local inspiration.
A Global Culinary Exchange in the Heart of Ubud
The guest chef series at Apéritif is designed to celebrate diverse gastronomic perspectives. Visiting chefs collaborate closely with Executive Chef Nic Vanderbeeken and his team to create limited-time degustation menus that blend the guest chefs’ signature styles with locally sourced Indonesian ingredients. Each dinner promises bold creativity, flawless technique, and harmonious storytelling through food.
“Bringing the world’s most celebrated chefs to Apéritif allows us to offer our guests an extraordinary and ever-evolving dining experience,” said Chef Nic Vanderbeeken. “These collaborations not only inspire our team, but they also showcase the rich potential of Balinese produce and hospitality on the global culinary stage.”
A Series of Unforgettable Dining Events
Each Michelin-star guest chef residency includes a multi-day series of exclusive tasting events, with limited seats to preserve intimacy and ensure impeccable service. Past events have featured luminaries such as Chef Arnaud Dunand Sauthier (Maison Dunand, Bangkok), Chef Julien Royer (Odette, Singapore), and Chef Jarad McCarroll (Andronis, Santorini).
Every menu is uniquely tailored to highlight the chef’s signature techniques while weaving in Apéritif’s hallmark touches—exquisite plating, thoughtful wine pairings, and a theatrical progression of flavours. These evenings are more than meals; they are curated cultural and culinary experiences.
Showcasing Bali as a Global Dining Destination
With its Michelin-star guest series, Apéritif continues to position Bali as a top-tier culinary destination. The initiative not only appeals to global foodies and sophisticated travellers, but also nurtures a culture of culinary excellence on the island.
“We’re proud to be a bridge between Bali and the world,” added General Manager Patrick Farrell. “Our goal is to create something magical that you won’t find anywhere else on the island—or in the world.”
