Watch the sets roll in over a Negroni at golden hour. Sapphire is the best seat in Sumbawa.
Meet Master Chef Kuncir
Chef Kuncir’s story is one of passion ignited from an unexpected spark. Born into a family of chefs in Batu Layar, Lombok, cooking was in his blood, but not initially in his heart. He spent his early years under the guidance of his adoptive Scottish father, with dreams of drawing, not dicing and sautéing. However, his destiny took a delicious turn at a Culinary School in Bali, where the art of cooking captivated his soul.
Now, with a fiery passion, Chef Kuncir aims to make Sapphire not just a restaurant but a culinary landmark in Sumbawa. He masterfully weaves local and international ingredients into extraordinary culinary tapestries, transforming each dish into a work of art. His journey from the canvas to the kitchen is a testament to the power of passion, transforming what once was just a family trait into a personal triumph.
