or two nights this July, meimei welcomes Chef Louis Tikaram of Stanley to Bali.

Raised between Australia and Fiji, Louis has built an international reputation through deeply personal cooking shaped by Southeast Asia, the Pacific, Cantonese tradition, and years spent in some of the world’s most respected kitchens.

From Longrain and Tetsuya’s in Sydney to E.P. & L.P. in Los Angeles, and now Stanley in Brisbane, his food tells the story of movement, memory, family, and fire.

At Stanley, Louis has helped redefine modern Cantonese dining in Australia - blending premium Queensland produce, Hong Kong-inspired shared dining, and bold contemporary flavour into one of Brisbane’s leading restaurant destinations.

Expect layered spice, bright herbs, smoke, citrus, live-fire cooking, and dishes designed to be shared around the table.
