Titled the King's Feast: Between Two Banks, the event uses gastronomy, design, light, and scent to weave a captivating story of ancient Egyptian cosmology and the Nile's enduring life force. Alchemy Experience curates this transformative dining landscape, inviting guests to not just eat, but to experience a living narrative rooted in history and reimagined for the future."
"The Feast's journey begins with the Scent of the Nile, which fragrantly welcome guests by using ancient aromas like frankincense and myrrh to bridge the earthly and the divine. The space opens up to the Gathering in the River Garden, representing a modern ritual of community through its open greenery and bar. It concludes with Offering, where a tribute to Egypt's agricultural heritage is presented along the giant dining table."
