An Evening of Sustainable Gastronomy with Matthew Orlando

Sustainability is one of our core values, and it is therefore a great honour to welcome Matthew Orlando.

He has been a major source of inspiration to us in our efforts to reduce food waste and consumption.

Matthew is an internationally recognised chef and a pioneer in sustainable gastronomy. He is especially known for his work as Head Chef at Noma and as the founder of Amass, where he set new standards for minimizing food waste and circular cooking.

After his time at Amass, Matthew moved to Singapore, where he continued his mission to promote sustainable cooking techniques through global projects, collaborations, and consulting.

In January 2024, he opened AIR Restaurant in Dempsey Hill – a unique concept combining a restaurant, cookery school, and sustainable research centre focused on championing local produce and minimising food waste.

The final menu will take shape just a few days before the dinner because we want to seek out and hand-select the prime ingredients that are currently in season – remaining a surprise until the night itself.

In preparation for the event, Matthew will join us as we visit our local suppliers to hand-pick the ingredients and make the best possible use of surplus produce, avoiding unnecessary waste.

This collaborative process, with a strong focus on creativity, knowledge sharing, and hands-on learning, will be reflected throughout the evening.

We invite you to experience an evening of sustainable gastronomy, where each serving highlights different elements of a fully utilized ingredient.

Four sections, each centred around a single fully utilised main ingredient, with 2–4 dishes per section – using everything from root to tip and/or nose to tail.

For the dinner, you can choose between a Danish beverage pairing carefully selected by our sommelier to complement the flavours of the menu, or a non-alcoholic pairing featuring our own homemade juices crafted from Danish fruits and vegetables.
