Culinary Clash 2026 Recap- Night 1 🍽️

From concept to execution—this is what Culinary Clash is all about.

As a student-run restaurant experience, Culinary Clash challenges teams to develop a cohesive brand, craft a multi-course menu, and deliver a seamless dining service to live guests.

This team’s menu reflected a clear, intentional vision:
✨ Hamachi Ceviche with calamansi coconut leche de tigre and kinilaw-inspired elements
✨ Pan-Seared Marinated Duck with yucca-parsnip purée and aji amarillo duck jus
✨ Kabocha Flan with kumquat, hazelnuts, kiwi, and salted shortbread crumble

Each course was designed not only for flavor, but for balance, presentation, and overall concept alignment—bringing a refined, globally inspired narrative to the table.

Great work, Team 1, Maliah and Ed!
