Something about myself....
My love story with the kitchen started at a very young age,but before I could actually step into the field of the professionals ,I had to go through a short experience practicing law at a law office.That experience only pushed me further to search for my real destination,and soon enough I packed my bags and flew all the way to Paris,France ,where my real journey has all started....
Altogether I stayed in France about 5 years,getting a first hand experience,first at Lenotre pastry school
and then in different Pastry boutiques in Paris,including Stohrer
and Jean Paul Hevin's chocolate shop .
Today,I live in Bangkok and enjoy one of the best kitchens in the world- the Thai kitchen .Currently,I'm in the process of starting my own business here- namely,a pastry and cuisine studio,where I hope to bring together people who desire to experience food and kitchen in a different and more intimate manner.

What an interesting life story! What kind of pastries are popular in Bangkok?
Summer
That is just too cool!!
Thanks for the supporting feedbacks.It is one long journey and not always an easy one.
Actually,I had the thought of trying to write and share about some of my experiences and stories in my new "adopted " region.
Summer - doing pastry/bakery here can be as challenging as it may sound.Thailand has a very short history regarding baking.The traditional Thai pastries are still cooked mainly by steaming/boiling/grilling/frying
Actually, a regular common household in Thailand won't acquire an oven at all.
As for pastry/bakery consumption in Thailand- due to the lack of an important tradition in this area,it would be quite difficult to search for a quality bread here.But still,the interesting thing is that bread and pastry products are gaining popularity everyday now,and from surveys done recently it is held that a common breakfast for office workers in the city will consist mainly of bread/pastry ! A very important switch from the traditional cooked breakfast ,mainly due to the change in the life style.
I do intend,anyway,to write more about it in my future postings....
Ek,
Life is so short, each day should be filled with purpose. How fortunate you have the wisdom and courage to step out of a path leading to frustration. Please let us see some of your efforts as you progress in Thailand.
