With a passion for both the precision of yachts and the artistry of cuisine, I bring a unique perspective to the table (or rather, the countertop). After graduating from Le Cordon Bleu London in both Pastry and Cuisine, I find myself equally drawn to the rich flavours of Asian cuisine and the timeless elegance of French technique. For me, cuisine is a beautiful explora6on of flavour combinations, achieved through both creative flair and meticulous science. Pastry, on the other hand, is a love leBer to the transformative power of ingredients, where understanding the chemistry behind them unlocks a world of delectable possibili6es. The joy of crea6ng and witnessing the pleasure others take in my culinary works, makes the kitchen my true happy place.
