Hyatt Regency Bangkok Sukhumvit has appointed Frederik Farina as its executive chef and director of F&B.
He assumed both roles last month at the first Hyatt Regency in the Thai capital, which is scheduled to open later this year. In his new position, he will oversee all culinary attractions at Hyatt Regency Bangkok Sukhumvit.
Prior to his transfer, the Sicillian spent most of the last seven years in similar roles at Hyatt Regency Danang in Vietnam. He previously started with Hyatt Hotels in 2005, when he first worked at Grand Hyatt Erawan Bangkok for almost 10 years.
Farina started in 1999 as a cook helper at Jonico Restaurant in his hometown of Siracusa, Italy, before taking on culinary positions at renowned restaurants in Milan and Miami.
