Marrying his Belgian roots and classical French techniques with Asian influences and a Japanese shokunin-like work ethic, Chef Emmanuel Stroobant has made a name for himself in this region of the world. He's written cookbooks, starred in his own TV show (Chef In Black), and opened two Saint Pierre restaurants—in Singapore and most recently in KL—to boot. We sit down with him this week to talk about his story, his culture-blending cooking philosophy, and he sheds some words of wisdom to budding chefs out there too!
