Singapore’s acclaimed wood-fire grill restaurant Burnt Ends is set to return to Macau for a limited three-day pop-up at Grill 58, MGM Cotai, running from April 23 to 25, 2026.
Founded in 2013, Burnt Ends is known for its live-fire kitchen, operating without gas or electric cooking and fueled primarily by apple or almond wood. Burnt Ends has earned international acclaim for its contemporary wood-fire cuisine, holding a Michelin star for eight consecutive years since 2018 and securing positions on both The World’s 50 Best Restaurants and Asia’s 50 Best Restaurants lists. Its return to MGM Cotai continues a collaboration rooted in shared values of craftsmanship, fire-driven cooking, and technical precision.
Led by chef-owner Dave Pynt, the Macau pop-up marks his second guest-chef takeover at MGM, presented as part of the resort’s “Gastronomic Journey with Star Chefs” series. The experience will spotlight Burnt Ends’ signature modern Australian barbecue, built around open-fire cooking and wood-smoking techniques.
For the Macau collaboration, Grill 58 has prepared more than 800 kilograms of apple wood to reproduce the restaurant’s distinctive wood-fired flavors using its enclosed charcoal ovens and open-fire grill system.
Guests can expect a selection of Burnt Ends’ signature dishes, including Smoked Quail Egg and Caviar, Blackmore’s Striploin, and King Crab with Garlic Brown Butter. The pop-up will offer an eight-course lunch menu priced at MOP888 per person and an 11-course dinner menu priced at MOP1,688 per person, with optional wine pairings available at MOP850. All prices are subject to a 10% service charge.
