The World’s Best Female Chef Is Coming To Sydney
Chef Pam, named The World’s Best Female Chef 2025, is bringing her celebrated take on contemporary Thai cuisine to Crown Sydney with SEK, a brand new restaurant set to open in 2027. Created exclusively for Sydney, SEK will combine an open kitchen, refined yet warm service and interactive tableside moments, with considered wine pairings and a signature Thai dessert trolley to finish.
What makes SEK especially exciting is the focus on experience as much as the food. Chef Pam will work with premium Australian produce while bringing her modern and personal approach to Thai cuisine, creating a restaurant that feels elevated but approachable. With Crown Sydney positioning SEK as a chef-led journey rather than a traditional Thai restaurant, this is one to watch for Sydney’s dining scene.
