THEY'VE helped corporate diners and private hosts put together dinner with a tale for the past three years. Now, Crystal Chua and Stephan Zoisl of private dining outfit My Private Chef want to tell some stories of their own too. In June, they will launch Stories, a series of theatrical pop-up dinners based on historical events and iconic sites in Singapore.
"Stories combines my love for food and my interest in local monuments and history - and conveying them through fine food and wine," says Ms Chua, 39.
At their first dinner to be held on June 26-29 at the Tanjong Pagar Railway Station, up to 180 diners will be regaled with retellings of the building's illustrious past while seated for a five-course fine-dining meal.
