Foodie heaven in NYC!


Although it’s a little cloudy today, Springtime in New York always makes me feel alive. No wonder it has inspired poets, songwriters, artists and photographers – there is just something inherently energising about the place at this time of year.

Plus, I’ve a whole weekend of foodie fun to look forward to thanks to the second LUCKYRICE Festival! Tonight I’m off to The Grand Feast in the glorious surroundings of the Mandarin Oriental Ballroom with breath-taking views across Central Park. Prepared by an acclaimed line up of Asian master chefs as well as those from the LUCKYRICE culinary council, The Grand Feast is going to be something really special with the flavours of Korea, Taiwan, Maau and Malaysia all set to delight. Then on Sunday, I’m really looking forward to hosting the Talk + Taste event from 1 until 4 at the Astor Center. There’s going to be so much to see and do there and the event’s interactive style really makes for a relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere. Guests can alternate between six demos by star chefs in the Professional Demo Kitchen as well as a chance to join in various food samplings, beverage tastings and culinary showcases in the adjoining lounge at the Astor Centre. Looking forward to seeing the stellar chef line up including Ming Tsai (Blue Ginger), Angelo Sosa (Social Eatz) and Jennifer Maeng. If you're attending do come and say hello!

  1. Hello,

    If you ever get to Paris, you can check out the French names of Chinese ingredients on the web site associated with my book at http://www.cuisines-chinoises-regionales.com with its detailed descriptions and images of the recipes and ingredients, and with its recipe of the month! The Chinese names are given for the recipes and their ingredients so that you can easily order the dish in a restaurant or find the ingredients in a specialty food market.

    Try it out!

    Best regards, udscbt
