Chef Goo GooConrad Bengaluru is dialing the culinary compass to Myanmar with an exclusive three-day feast curated by Dean With Us and celebrated Chef Phyu-Cyn, popularly known as Chef Goo Goo, this August. From 22nd to 24th, the hotel will transform into a vibrant canvas of flavours, capturing the essence of Yangon’s lively streets, Bangkok’s spice markets, and London’s eclectic kitchens. Through soulful storytelling and inventive plates, the experience aims to bring alive a deeply personal and progressive interpretation of Burmese cuisine, one that is rooted in love, culture, and identity.
The experience is presented in collaboration with Dean With Us, founded by Akanksha and Rupali Dean, who are widely recognised for curating meaningful, cross-cultural culinary experiences across Asia. Aligned with Conrad Bengaluru’s vision of hosting globally inspired and thoughtfully curated events, the showcase brings together culinary storytelling, cultural exchange, and a celebration of evolving food traditions. With Chef Goo Goo at the helm, the pop-up sets the stage for a one-of-a-kind exploration of Burmese cuisine through a contemporary lens.
Chef Goo Goo, born and raised in Yangon, draws on her Anglo-Burmese heritage and Eurasian upbringing to craft dishes that balance authenticity with modern storytelling. Her culinary journey has taken her from shaping menus in Myanmar to serving progressive Burmese cuisine across Paris, Bangkok, Goa, and Geneva. Her signature style blends comfort, technique, and identity, with each dish rooted in intention, memory, and compassion. Known for her ability to translate the spirit of Myanmar onto the plate, she has collaborated with some of the world’s leading chefs and continues to be a rising voice in global culinary circles.
Speaking about the pop-up, Mr. Digvijay, General Manager, Conrad Bengaluru, said, “At Conrad Bengaluru, we take immense pride in offering our guests globally inspired experiences that push boundaries and spark creativity. Through this collaboration with Dean With Us, we are thrilled to bring a slice of Yangon to Namma Ooru with the extraordinary Chef Goo Goo, think of her as a culinary storyteller with a passport full of flavors. From tea leaf salads stirred with the heart of Myanmar, to mohinga brimming with ‘mettā’ and ‘cetanā,’ her dishes are not just food, they are a warm embrace. This collaboration is a love letter to global connections, creativity, and the power of food to spark conversation. For three days, we invite Bengaluru to taste her journey.”
