Day 1 – Friday, May 30: Pastry Porn with Gareth Whitton
The festivities kick off at Tipple Room by Mozaic, where Gareth Whitton—co-founder of Melbourne’s cult pastry spot Tarts Anon and guest judge on MasterChef Australia—will be serving up a pop-up pastry experience from 1:00 to 4:00 PM. Expect glossy tarts, crisp textures, and flavors that punch you in the mouth—in a good way.
Want to level up? Book the VIP Pastry Masterclass from 11:00 AM to 12:30 PM for just Rp388,000++. That’s right, you get to watch a pastry god at work, ask your burning questions, and maybe even learn to whip up something that impresses on your next date night.
Day 2 – Saturday, May 31: Three Chefs. One Epic Dinner.
Things get serious Saturday night with a three-chef collab dinner in The Dining Room at Mozaic—Rp1,700,000++ a head, and worth every damn rupiah.
The lineup:
- Chef Blake Thornley, Mozaic’s main man, whose restaurant is #25 in the La Liste 2025 and repping Indonesia solo on the prestigious Les Grandes Tables du Monde.
- Chef Gareth Whitton, bringing the sweet heat from Down Under.
- Chef Christian Martena of CLARA Bangkok, an Italian maestro with Michelin Guide cred and a spot on the 50 Top Italy list (#23, no big deal).
Together, they’ll craft a menu that fuses Indonesian soul, Italian flair, and Aussie boldness—basically, the Avengers of fine dining.
