So lucky to have witnessed one of Singapore’s ( but he’s proudly Pinoy 🙂 ) top chefs – Chef Edward Esmero. He is the Executive Chef and Director of My Little Spanish Place and My Little Tapas Bar in Singapore ) He is so entertaining when he is giving the class, so down to earth and so funny!! He was so kind to share his secret recipes!!
Thank you Sari for inviting me!
He told us that at age 12 he wanted to open a restaurant and he had 2 by the age of 32. Soon to open in Bali and next year he is opening one in the Philippines with my friend Happy Ongpauco Tiu. It is going to be a Cochinillo restaurant and Happy told me it will be proudly Filipino – not Spanish but Filipino! 🙂 She’s the best! Always promoting our very own! Looking forward to it !!!
