Taylor’s Culinary Institute (TCI) proudly lent its culinary expertise to The Datai Langkawi for the prestigious Michelin "Cheffe" Series Dinner. The event showcased three Michelin-starred female chefs from the United Kingdom: Angela Hartnett (Italian cuisine), Lisa Goodwin-Allen (British cuisine), and Nieves Barragán Mohacho (Spanish cuisine). Together, they delivered an extraordinary six-hands dinner, highlighting the exceptional talents of female Michelin chefs from around the world.
At the special request of The Datai Langkawi, Chef Khairul Muhamad, supported by Chef Massyittah Omar and assisted by Jan See Chen Ho, a proud alumnus of Taylor’s Diploma in Culinary programme 2009, played integral roles in ensuring the event’s success. This collaboration marked the third consecutive year Chef Khairul has partnered with The Datai Langkawi, following his previous successes with Michelin-starred UK chef Tom Aikens in 2022 and French culinary legends Michel and Sébastien Bras in 2023.
The Taylor’s TCI team was honored to work alongside these distinguished chefs, overseeing the intricate preparation and execution of the dinners. This unique opportunity allowed the TCI team to collaborate with leading figures in the European Michelin fine dining scene, while also showcasing the Institute’s culinary prowess to some of Asia and Malaysia’s most prominent guests.
The continued trust The Datai Langkawi places in TCI’s expertise is a testament to our commitment to delivering industry-relevant education. This partnership further strengthens Taylor’s Culinary Institute's reputation as a regional leader in culinary excellence, upholding global standards, and fostering collaborations that seamlessly integrate education with real-world experience.
