Vin Folk and KinKan Kaiseki Collaboration

A kaiseki collaboration across three culinary approaches

VinFolk X Kinkan is a two-night collaboration kaiseki dinner built around Japanese, Thai, and Vin Folk’s globally inspired culinary approaches.

The event is tied to October 2026 and appears in the calendar as an evening event on a single listed date within that two-night series. The precise start and end time belong in the event details display, but the planning essentials are that this is a timed dinner series rather than an open-ended pop-up or general menu offering.

Chefs and restaurants involved

Three named chefs are attached to the dinner: Nan Yimcharoen, chef and owner of KinKan; Kevin de los Santos, chef and co-owner of Vin Folk; and Ekaterina de los Santos, co-owner and chef of Vin Folk. Those roles connect the kaiseki format to both restaurants named in the collaboration.

KinKan is identified as a Los Angeles restaurant, while Vin Folk is identified as a Hermosa Beach restaurant. The collaboration description specifically combines Japanese and Thai references with Vin Folk’s globally inspired approach, so the clearest way to read the program is as a chef-led dinner between the two restaurant teams.

Location context

The listed venue is Vin Folk, a restaurant at 1501 Hermosa Ave in Hermosa Beach, CA 90254. The broader city field places the event in the Los Angeles area, while the venue address gives the specific Hermosa Beach location for this dinner.
