A culinary experience that begins before you reach the table.
An intimate culinary experience that brings you closer to the earth, the ingredients, and the joy of creating a beautiful meal together.
At Chandra, dinner becomes something you experience rather than simply receive.
Begin in the gardens of Moon Gate, discover ingredients grown close to home, meet the chef behind the menu, step into the kitchen as the evening takes shape, and finally gather around the table to share the meal together.
THE EXPERIENCE
Four moments. One Shared Evening
01
A Welcome from the Garden
Begin with a welcome drink, followed by a gentle walk through Moon Gate’s Enchanted Garden and Trail of Senses.
Along the way, discover some of the fresh ingredients grown on Moon Gate’s own farm that will later find their way into your evening’s meal.
02
Meet Chef. Scott Alan & Explore the Menu
Gather in Chandra’s kitchen and dining space as Chef Scott Alan introduces the evening’s menu.
Discover the fresh, organic ingredients sourced from local farmers and Moon Gate’s own farm, alongside the proteins being prepared for the evening, and learn how their flavors come together in each dish.
03
Create, Connect & Discover
Join Chef Scott Alan in the kitchen as the meal begins to take shape.
Explore preparation techniques, cooking, and the art of plating, with opportunities to participate throughout the evening.
Prefer to simply observe? Guests are equally welcome to relax and mingle in the adjoining salon, where the open kitchen keeps everyone connected to the experience.
04
Gather at the Table
Then comes the reason everything before it matters.
Sit down together to enjoy four courses featuring six thoughtfully prepared dishes, sharing the flavors and discoveries of the evening.
Come with friends, family, or your own private group.
The table becomes a place to meet, converse, discover, and enjoy a meal created with intention.
Come for the food. Leave with new inspiration, meaningful connection, and a deeper appreciation for the care behind every plate.
