Author and restaurateur Bobby Chinn will be hosting special events in Guduguda, our authentic Maldivian restaurant and the first of its kind in the Maldives, for an exclusive two-week residency from October 1st to 16th, 2021. The first in a series of internationally-renowned culinary showcase, Chef Bobby will introduce modern Vietnamese and Pan-Asian cuisine, with his playful twist of bridging east and west.

Taste Bobby’s specially-curated menu, which will be presented at Guduguda, styled in a traditional Maldivian setting, low on the floor on cushions indoor and out, and overlooking the stunning turquoise Maldivian waters. Chef Bobby will be serving family style meals into a symphony of small plates and a Pan-Asian 8-course set dinner. The set course menu will feature some of his signature dishes; for example, tamarind glazed crab cake; green tea smoked rack of lamb; lobster cellophane noodles; and chocolate molten cake made from Vietnam's own artisanal chocolate maker Marou.
