Restaurant India News: Conrad Bengaluru Brings Burmese Flavours to the City with Chef Goo Goo

Conrad Bengaluru will present a three-day Burmese food experience from August 22 to 24, in collaboration with Dean With Us and Myanmar-born chef Phyu-Cyn, known professionally as Chef Goo Goo. The event will offer guests a curated menu that reflects influences from Yangon, Bangkok, and London, combining authentic Burmese flavors with a contemporary approach.

Dean With Us, founded by Akanksha and Rupali Dean, is recognised for creating cross-cultural dining events across Asia. This collaboration aligns with Conrad Bengaluru’s focus on offering globally inspired and carefully curated culinary experiences.

Chef Goo Goo, raised in Yangon, brings an Anglo-Burmese and Eurasian background to her cooking. Her career spans work in Myanmar and pop-up events in Paris, Bangkok, Goa, and Geneva. She is known for blending traditional recipes with modern techniques, using food to convey personal narratives and cultural identity.

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.”

The event will highlight Burmese cuisine in a progressive format, giving diners an opportunity to explore a lesser-represented culinary tradition through a global hospitality platform.
