Hee hee, the dessert that Afif didn't want to try because he doesn't like hazelnuts, but then I barely got him to relinquish a couple of spoonfuls to me once he tried it. And then pffft, it was gone. xo
Shuna, your plates are always so beautifully done which brings up a thought: how does a dessert or even savory chef learn the techniques of plating ie what looks appealing, what the current trends are in plating styles etc...?
Galangal is magic. I bought it once by mistake, thinking it was standard fresh ginger. My life was never the same again...and I mean that in the best possible way.
Fan-freakin-tastic.
