Garuda Indonesia has announced its Star Chefs Program to introduce new signature dishes created by world-renowned chefs starting 1 February 2016 for First Class and Business Class passengers to enjoy at 30,000 feet. Chefs featured include the Indonesian street food master Will Mayrick from Tiger Palm, the French-Indonesian hybrid cuisine of Gilles Marx of Amuz, and Felix Budisetiawan of the celebrated Sriwijaya Restaurant. Each has been specially chosen to create entire menus based on the unique and diverse traditional Indonesian dishes found across the archipelago. This new service concept promises a unique and tangible experience of the five senses – sight, sound, taste, scent and touch – at every stage of the journey, from pre-flight to post-flight. The Director of Services, Garuda Indonesia, Nicodemus P. Lampe says, “Customer satisfaction has always been our foremost consideration, and the Star Chefs Program is part of our effort to deliver the best possible flying experience for our passengers. With menus featuring signature dishes created by renowned Chefs, Garuda Indonesia intends to continue taking our award winning services to an entirely new level of excellence, by providing customers with a gastronomic 5-star dining experience on board, as well as to preserve our role in promoting Indonesia’s rich cultural heritage, including ensuring that the rest of the world has the opportunity to experience the unique taste of Indonesian cuisine.”
