I had my introduction to a Masterclass Cooking Demo last month. I enjoyed it and decided to go for another demo. This last demo was led by Chef Danny Tan, the award-winning chef from Casa Verde, a casual Italian restaurant within the Les Amis Group.
With Award-winning Chef Danny Tan – My Privilege To Learn From Him
This series of five Masterclass Cooking Demo started in April and was organised by the good people from NUHS (National University Health System), NCIS (National University Cancer Institute, Singapore) and NUH (National University Hospital) with great support from the Les Amis Group. Each of the demo menu was proposed by the Chefs from the Les Amis Group and vetted by the hospital’s dietetics team.
