Private Dining Experience with Reynold Poer
KOI, which stands for 'Kids of Ike', is now operated by three brothers Ronald, Arnold and Reynold Poernomo, who have come together to deliver an experience that arouses and excites the senses. I was excited to finally pay Koi a visit as I had been an avid supporter of Reynold’s journey on Masterchef. I’ve always admired his creativity in crafting imaginative food. I loved going behind the scenes in watching him plate up - and felt lucky to witness his talent in person.
If you’re looking to engage all your senses in a unique fine-dining experience - i’d highly recommend paying KOI Dessert Bar a visit with Chef Reynold Poernomo. You’ll get to try a surprise selection of sweet & savoury dishes with your friends. This experience is exclusive for Mastercard holders.
