The writing on the wall behind us was not randomly selected…There is no better person to talk about food than a chef, right @bobbychinn? And in our biased opinion, there is no better place to talk about climate than the gem that is #SharmElSheikh. #Food security, disrupted by the implications of #climate change, requires a commitment to adaptation efforts, such as reducing food waste, an initiative by the @rcitiesnetwork. #COP27 #TogetherForImplementation
Prepping for So Amazing Chef 10 year anniversary at So Bangkok. November 1-6. One of the signature dishes is the Crab Corn Espresso. Today I am training a young chef on all the little details of a good fish stock. It starts with reducing food waste, here we remove all the meat from the bones. 2.4 kg which will now be converted into this fish cakes and fish balls. We chop through the vertebrate to help release the gelatin and we soak it in cold water, to remove all the blood and impurities. For the next week, we will be making fish stocks with fish stock. Eventually we will use a triple fish stocks to make the crab stock! You can’t make a great sauce with an average stock. This might look like a time consuming process, however, if you live what you do, it’s a pride and joy, especially if the guests enjoy it. @sobangkok @rcitiesnetwork @foodtank #fishstock #reducingwaste #crabcornsoup
I had the pleasure of meeting @JohnKerry at #COP27 today! John Kerry has ambitious plans for methane reduction globally, and #UrbanEats aims to deliver on this by creating a more circular food system. #TogetherforImplementation.
Just two good Egyptian friends at #COP27 in #Egypt’s beautiful #SharmElSheikh. We might be from completely different fields, but we’re all on the same page here. #TogetherForImplementation
I’m looking forward to the R-Cities Future of Resilience Reception in Sharm el Sheikh #COP27 tonight! The dinner menu was finely curated by the team at the Movenpick Hotel and I. Together, we will be encouraging city and country leaders, urban practitioners and partners to pivot to resilient, healthy and regenerative food systems. I’m also excited for the film release of Food 2050 in 2022, featuring visionaries who seek to heal the planet and our bodies through food. It’s going to be an amazing night of food, film and friends!
A collosal inspiration to all. Humble, articulate, highly educated and passionate about tackling any project given to her. She did wonders as the minister of Tourism and is as equally if not more impactful as her role at the ministry of International cooperating of tackling Climate change. The one and only @raniaalmashat @rcitiesnetwork @cop27 egypt
Banh Cuon done by a master, a legend, 3rd generation. If you have my cookbook this is the lady that taught me Banh Cuon dish having asked her for 8 years. Eventually she taught me, but there is always twists to any story. Do you know the story? #hanoi #streetfood #banhcuon
I’m excited to be at #COP27 in Sharm el-Sheikh with @rcitiesnetwork We are here to advance urban resilience solutions on the ground, especially for the communities most vulnerable to the impacts of climate change. As the #UrbanEats ambassador, I will also be sharing my experience on food waste and circularity to elevate the food resilience agenda with Food Tank, Rockefeller Foundation, Arup and other partners.
A warm welcome back to Dubai! I’m here for the 15th Emirates Literary Festival and my fans from India heard I was working with the chefs on my vegan tasting menu for my dinner on February 3rd @emirateslitfest @intercondfc The least I could do is salute them from the balcony. 😂 It’s nice to be chef! Who would have ever thought that one day this cook would be sitting with HE Mariam Almheiri, UAE Minister of Climate Change talking about food security policies in the UAE and the urgent call to action to transform the global food system. I didn’t learn this overnight, I was lucky to be put under the wings of the incredible team #resilentcities and working on their Urban Eats Campaign on a more circular food system. I’m also a proud member of #foodtank (and so should all of you who wish to learn more about our broken food system) We should not despair, collectively we have the power!

Memories on a plate, chef Pam & Kai Ho collaborate with their four hand dinner showcasing modern interpretations of food memories from their childhood, encompassing Thai, Chinese, and when I say Chinese, I mean Thai Chinese and Taiwanese. To simply call it Chinese food is inaccurate and incorrect, as the cuisine is regional, like Northern Indian vs southern, or Goan vs Hyderabad…. @kaiho1011 @chef.pam @sobangkok
Trying something rather unusual in Sicily!
I’m giving a cooking class at So Amazing Chef event this Wednesday 2nd of November @ 10:00 am. For those of you that are in town and are interested, you’re gonna learn about fish sauce, some Vietnamese cooking techniques, some interesting facts on ingredients and my technique of achieving the classic authentic Bun Bo dish with a different process where you will achieve those wonderful flavours with a different approach which you might find easier then the traditional way! There will be laughter, maybe a little profanity (it comes with white jacket but can be refrained) #bunbo #vietnamesefood #cheflife #cookingclass #sobangkok
Part 2 Well, outside of forgetting to mention fish stock and soil erosion, I am adamant that we can all be part of the solution by changing our diet and our attitude towards food. #foodwaste @rcitiesnetwork @foodtank Thank you @channelnewsasia for giving me the opportunity to chat a little bit about Resilent Food Networks and the great work that the team is doing
It was a great evening at COP27 with this incredible team at @rcitiesnetwork and their donors and partners not to mention the support of our special guest of honor to have minister of international cooperation @raniaalmashat. I’d like to thank the F&B team at Movenpick that did an incredible vegetarian meal for all the guests that attended and @karimnoor_aka_kiki who helped us all the way through this cop27. I@am@here to help bring greater awareness of food waste and a more circular food system. @rockefellerfdn @visauk @worldbank
Nuoc Gao Rang, no dairy, creamy nutty deliciousness that tastes very similar to horchata. You can have it with ice in summer and on a cold winter evening, it can be comfortably slurped on the side streets of Hanoi. #streetfood an Asian version of a dairy free #horchata
Live from @sobangkok at the SO Amazing Chefs 2022 Cheese at SO/ night. With @philippemarand @patrice_freres_marchand the cheese masters giving us a tour of all the cheeses they specially handpicked for this event. #sobangkok #feelthepulse #soamazingcheese2022
Throwback to processing bean curd in Chengdu!
Throwback to riding the rails in Sri Lanka!
Throwback to visiting Jaipur, a land of amazing natural beauty and friendly people
Banh cuc, this was a collosal discovery for me decades ago. It was love at first bite. Sticky rice with a mung bean purée and some natural sticky substance that incases the purée in the center tall wrapped together with this sticky rice. Generally a piece of pork fat is in the middle which I remove. #streetfood #hanoi #oldquarter

This young lady’s attitude can be found throughout COP27. If the governments can’t act quick enough, if the pledges of nations don’t find their way, let it be known that we as individuals don’t have have to wait. The climate has changed and we have the power to change our behavior to help mitigate the crisis! @shortgirlchaoticworld you are an inspiration! #cop27
