From August to September 2026, the Luxury Dining Series returns for its third edition, uniting world-class chefs and cultural storytellers across Asia Pacific to celebrate what brings us together—one table at a time. Guided by the theme ‘Across the Table’, stories unfold, flavors linger, and strangers become companions. Every experience is designed to feel unguarded and alive, celebrating not just what is served, but what is shared. As part of the Luxury Dining Series, JW Marriott Phu Quoc Emerald Bay Resort & Spa presents Across the Table: The Soul of Vietnam. Enjoy a chef collaboration by Michelin-starred Chef Olivier Elzer & Summer Le at Pink Pearl, celebrating Vietnamese heritage and modern gastronomy. Your one-night stay in an Emerald Bay Ocean View Room includes a Vietnamese craft workshop and access to Phu Quoc’s Kiss of the Sea, a grand nighttime show featuring fire, water, lasers, 3D mapping, and music. Unfolding over the course of a week, our exclusive Luxury Dining Series is a celebration of heritage, artistry, and storytelling — where each moment is thoughtfully orchestrated to reveal the essence of Vietnamese gastronomy at its most elevated. Across the Table: The Soul of Vietnam invites discerning guests into an intimate exploration of Vietnam’s most refined culinary traditions. Edging the sand and surf of Khem Beach, JW Marriott Phu Quoc Emerald Bay Resort & Spa is a luxury haven amid a stunning travel destination. What was once a 19th-century French university has been reimagined as an eclectically themed, lavish beachfront playground by renowned resort architect Bill Bensley. Lounge by the mosaic-tiled, seashell-shaped pool, or on the immaculate white sands of our beach, reserved exclusively for resort guests.
