Jetwing journey with Kumar

View(s):

Sri Lankan born Kumar Pereira, a designer by profession became the oldest competitor (at a sprightly 62 years of age!) to ever make it into the Top 12 of one of the most famous cookery shows on TV worldwide – MasterChef Australia. Competing against 50 immensely talented individuals was no easy task at all, with Kumar losing 10kg during the course of the competition!

To kick off the New Year Jetwing Hotels and SriLankaInStyle, the island’s leading experiential travel specialists present a Culinary Tour of Sri Lanka with Kumar. The tour will take a group of 12 travellers on an incredible journey as Kumar cooks at Jetwing Lagoon, Jetwing Vil Uyana, Jetwing St. Andrew’s and Jetwing Lighthouse, with an evening of culinary perfection at each property.

Each event will follow the same format, beginning with delicious cocktails and then a live demonstration of a signature dish by Kumar after which a four course dinner will be served.

The evening will draw to a close with the opportunity to meet the man himself. In the case of Jetwing St. Andrew’s, the cool climate of the highlands lends itself well to a different event, a modern take on a traditional English High Tea. Passes for each of the events will be made available online, as well as on location.
