Pai Thai Welcomes Blue Elephant for a Four-Hands Celebration of Thai Cuisine<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

Pai Thai\u2019s Chef Amara Mahayothee is joined by Thailand\u2019s Master Chef Nooror Somany Steppe of Blue Elephant for two four-hands dinners and a culinary masterclass celebrating Thai flavours, heritage and tradition.<\/em><\/h3>\n

United Arab Emirates, Dubai, 5 October 2026:<\/strong> This October, Pai Thai at Jumeirah Al Qasr invites guests to an exceptional weekend of Thai gastronomy. On 16 and 17 October, the award-winning dining destination welcomes Blue Elephant founder, Master Chef Nooror Somany Steppe to Dubai, where she joins Head Chef Amara Mahayothee for a limited series of four-hands dinners and an intimate culinary masterclass.<\/h3>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Across two evenings, the chefs will present three- and five-course menus combining dishes from Pai Thai and Blue Elephant. Among the highlights are \u201cNaam Dokmai\u201d green mango lobster salad, prepared with mango from Master Chef Nooror Somany Steppe\u2019s native province; organic green chicken curry with Thai sweet basil and kaffir lime leaves; and ribeye with Blue Elephant Black Diamond garlic, GI pepper and a hint of truffle.<\/h3>\n

The dinner menu draws upon recipes with personal and historical significance. The jumbo river prawn tom yum replicates the traditional version served during the period of King Rama V in the late nineteenth century. Uniting Emirati dates with Thai mung bean and jasmine essence, the date cake dessert is inspired by a recipe from Master Chef Nooror Somany Steppe\u2019s late mother. These stories bring the collaboration\u2019s wider narrative of heritage and tradition to the table while connecting Thai culinary techniques with its Dubai setting.<\/h3>\n

On Saturday 17 October, the chefs take guests beyond the dining room with a hands-on masterclass exploring four Thai favourites: Yam Som O, Chor Muang, Gaeng Phed Goong and Khao Niew Ma Muang. Participants will discover the techniques and cultural stories behind each recipe before enjoying a seated three-course lunch at Pai Thai.<\/h3>\n
