Mandapa joins the Luxury Dining Series of The Luxury Group By Marriott International | News

Mandapa, a Ritz-Carlton Reserve in Ubud, Bali, is pleased to participate in the third edition of The Luxury Group by Marriott International’s Luxury Dining Series. The series offers curated culinary journeys under the theme ‘Across the Table’ and takes place in five luxury hotels in Asia on select dates from August to October, concluding with an experience at sea.
“This year, the focus of the Luxury Dining Series is to highlight the emotional heart of dining, exploring how stories unfold, flavors linger and connections deepen when meals are shared,” said Oriol Montal, Regional Vice President of Luxury, Marriott International Asia Pacific excluding China, and Regional Vice President of Singapore. “Each destination in this year’s series is truly unique, with an incredible line-up of talent eager to create experiences that celebrate not just what is served, but what is shared. Our hope is that discerning travelers will be inspired to explore somewhere new, and in the process rediscover the art of gathering.”
Each experience is carefully curated to celebrate curiosity and connection as chefs step outside the kitchen to connect with guests and foster authentic connections to the destinations, ingredients and each other.
