Closer Look: Gaggan at Louis Vuitton x Yosuke Suga Culinary Collab

Summary

• Louis Vuitton hosted a three-day fine dining event in Bangkok with chefs Gaggan Anand and Yosuke Suga
• The 12-course menu featured a blend of Japanese-French and progressive Indian dishes using seasonal Thai ingredients
• Highlights included Hokkaido potato with caviar, blue lobster with morel, and a curry course merging Japanese and Indian styles

UPDATE: We recently had the chance to try the exclusive menu for ourselves, notably, it brought together refined French-Japanese minimalism and bold Indian-Thai flavors in a multi-course dining experience. Signature dishes from Chef Suga included blue lobster with green asparagus and morel, and Hokkaido tomato paired with Kegani crab and Thai basil. Both known for ending their meals with a curry course, the chefs blended their traditions by pairing Japanese and basmati rice to create a cross-cultural take on curry.

For dessert, Thai pastry chef Dej Kewkacha introduced original creations like a savory combination of jasmine, cacao juice, and caviar. The meal concluded with a fusion of kanom kai and French madeleine, as well as a refreshing dessert featuring konatsu citrus from Kyushu, gin granita and Thai coconut milk. The collaborative menu highlighted seasonal ingredients and cultural contrasts, offering diners an inventive, one-off experience at the intersection of heritage and haute cuisine.
