The dinner will be held in aid of H.R.H. Princess Maha Chakri Sirindhorn's Foundation, and, as the chosen location for such an elite charity event, further confirms the high profiles of both Hua Hin and the luxurious InterContinental Hua Hin Resort.
The sell-out culinary affair is an opportunity for the award-winning chef to showcase his innovative dishes, which have gained him numerous worldwide awards and accolades. These range from the title of 'Chef of the Year' at the Danish Championships - as well as captaining the Danish Chefs National Team - back in 2003, to gaining a Michelin star in 2008 for Geranium in Rosenborg Castle Gardens, Copenhagen, before leading the restaurant into the top 100 list of best restaurants in the world.

The last two years have seen Chef Rasmus become a leading figure on the international stage, as he scooped the 2010 Bocuse d'Or Europe (European Championship) in Geneva, reopened the restaurant Geranium in Denmark's National Stadium 'Parken' and won the prestigious "Bocuse d'Or" in Lyon, France, in 2011, a competition widely regarded as the World Championships for chefs. His new restaurant achieved a Michelin star again in 2012.
Chef Rasmus will create a Scandinavian-influenced menu, showcasing Norwegian lobster and soup based on Danish hay cheese. Diners may then enjoy Halibut with asparagus and lemon balm, followed by veal with juniper and red beets. The meal will climax with liquorice and red berries, all the while being entertained by classical music provided by the talented Krungthep Light Orchestra.
Chef Rasmus is delighted to be part of such an important occasion. "I look forward to showing my cooking at this great event at the InterContinental Hua Hin Resort and also help support the work of H.R.H Princess Maha Chakri Sirindhorn's Foundation," he said.
The dinner will take place at the resort's La Residence, an exquisite heritage building designed in tune with the famed Rama VI Summer Palace. With a discreet entrance, private garden and parking the elegant retreat encompasses two levels of absolute comfort and style. It is a luxury private residence and is an escape of choice by a number of global sports celebrities at the very top of their games, such as Rafael Nadal in the past.
The InterContinental Hua Hin Resort will demonstrate again its commitment to quality and comfort for its guests, by offering a memorable package experience for the event, which includes the dinner, one night in one of the many suite rooms at the resort, as well as breakfast and Sunday Brunch at Pirom and Felicita restaurants.
