The event, featuring renowned chefs and culinary artisans from the Group, highlighted the unique amenities and services that embody the Mandarin Oriental brand.

Prominent chefs present at the event included Antonio Guida, known for his two Michelin-starred restaurants, Seta at Mandarin Oriental, Milan, and Talea at Emirates Palace Mandarin Oriental, Abu Dhabi. Richard Ekkebus, Executive Chef of the two-Michelin-starred and Green-starred Amber at The Landmark Mandarin Oriental, Hong Kong, and Dominique Bugnand, Executive Chef of Mandarin Oriental, Bangkok, were also part of the culinary line-up. Chanel Adams of the Bamboo Bar in Bangkok and Devender Kumar from The Aubrey in Hong Kong delivered world-class cocktails.

CEO of Mandarin Oriental Hotel Group, Laurent Kleitman, stated that the Miami project is an exciting step in their expansion across the Americas. “Over the next decade we intend to double our worldwide portfolio, and are excited to collaborate with leading developers, designers, and artisans who share our dedication to excellence, sustainability, and community engagement,” he said.

Francesco Cefalu, Chief Development Officer at Mandarin Oriental Hotel Group, reiterated the Group’s commitment to expanding their presence in North America, particularly the United States, across their hotels and branded residences.

The Group, known for its commitment to sustainable design and business practices, won three key categories at the World Sustainable Travel & Hospitality Awards. As its footprint in the U.S. market grows, Mandarin Oriental plans to leverage its unique blend of traditional and modern elements from The Oriental, Bangkok and The Mandarin, Hong Kong.
