SPECIAL GUESTS

Calvin Chan — Lost Bar
Calvin Chan brings over 15 years of hospitality experience behind the bar, known for his sharp palate, modern mixology, and love of premium spirits. As the creative force at LOST Bar, Calvin crafts distinctive cocktail menus that balance innovation with restraint — drawing deep influence from Japanese drinking culture, rare spirits, and precise technique. Expect thoughtful flavours, clean builds, and drinks designed to be sipped slowly, exactly as they should be.

Kenny Chiu — Matsuyama
The Hibachi Papi himself.
Kenny Chiu brings fire, heritage, and heart to the grill. Known as Hibachi Papi, Kenny channels his Taiwanese roots into bold, honest flavours — cooking with instinct, smoke, and precision. From street-side inspiration to refined technique, his skewers celebrate tradition while keeping things relaxed and generous. Expect soulful BBQ, cooked hot, shared easily, and made for good company.
