FACT Dining Award winners Chez Wam and Jun’s collaborate

Coolab Vol. 2 brings together Chef Hadrien and Chef Kelvin Cheung.

Two FACT Dining Award Dubai winners are creating a culinary collaboration. The restaurants Chez Wam and Jun’s have come together for a special dinner. Coolab Vol. 2 takes place on 21 October at Jun’s restaurant, and here’s how to get a seat at the table.

Chez Wam and Jun’s are firm favourites in Dubai. Chez Wam is located at St. Regis Gardens on Palm Jumeirah, and showcases fine dining French food. The name of the restaurant translates to “at mine”, and aims to make diners feel like they are being welcomed to a home. Chef Hadrien Villedieu is behind the menu, which covers starters, fish, meat, pasta, sides and sharing dishes.

Jun’s prides itself on offering third-culture-cooking. Created by Chef Kelvin Cheung, it draws inspiration from his Chinese heritage, and American as well as Canadian upbringing. Dishes include Char Siu Short Ribs, Rainbow Heirloom Carrots and Scallops with corn.

Coolab Vol. 2 will offer a 12-course dinner and 40 seats. This is a rare chance to meet with both chefs at an interactive, one-of-a-kind experience. Chef Kelvin will use French cooking techniques, and Chef Hadrien will create Asian-inspired dishes.

The Chez Wam and Jun’s menu will include a range of dishes. Snacks include Bao Peking Duck, Escargots, Not a Deep Dish Pizza and Oysters. Starters include Crispy Dumplings and Spring Roll 2.0. Mains include Char Siu Grilled Seabass, Hot Fish, Mongolian Short Ribs and XO Lobster Rice Noodles. Desserts include Fortune Cookie and Cookies, Garett Pop Corn Pie, Passion Fruit Marshmallow and Pistachio Matcha Matcha Lollipop.
