I love to see the raw ingredients being put together and creating some fantastic dishes out of it.
To be able to let my students learn some skills from me and cook some wonderful dishes for their loved ones.
To see the smile on my clients face while eating my food.
My grandma, but sadly she passed on so that she can give her comments on my Peranakan cooking as she is one true blue Nonya.
I eat everything that walks, crawls or swims, hahaha.
Getting cuts and burns on the hands. The biggest cut was caused when I was chopping roasted duck too quickly as there were so many orders and I nearly chopped off my fingers. I had a very deep cut and blood was spewing everywhere nonstop which required stitches.
My trusted personal chef knife and plating tweezers
To impart knowledge and seeing my students graduate and to make a name for themselves in the kitchen world.
