Head Chef

Chef Au Phachara

Meet the heart of our kitchen. This is Chef Au Phachara.

Chef Au leads Al Fresco with a deep respect for cozy, honest cooking. His approach is rooted in generosity, food made to be shared, passed around the table, and enjoyed without overthinking. The kind of dishes that arrive in the middle, invite everyone to lean in, and slowly bring the room together.

His flavours feel familiar in the best way. Thoughtful but never complicated. Built on good ingredients, careful technique, and small details you only begin to notice when you take your time. A seasoning adjusted at the last second. A sauce that’s just right. A final taste before a plate goes out.

Most nights, you’ll find him behind the pass. Watching, tasting, adjusting. Making sure every dish carries the warmth and balance it’s meant to. Nothing rushed. Nothing careless. Just food that feels right.

This is Al Fresco through his hands. Food made with intention, meant for long conversations, full tables, and evenings that unfold slowly.
