I know that chefs from Japan and Korea get into Italian and French cooking. But how common is it for a Western chef to study the art of Chinese or Japanese cuisine and excell in the field of it?
I would be one of those. Do I excel? That is matter for debate. Nothing is more exciting than learning a new cuisine though, and I highly recommend it.
I have learned more ingredients and techniques in the last year than almost all of my career.
The only uk chef i can think of is Tom Kime. ( im sure he's English) he specialises in Thai food.
There are chefs that go out to Australia and get heavily involved in the Asian/fusion cuisine.
Oops! Just seen him on tv and realised he's australian
When it comes to Asian food, I also get reminded of Indian cusine! Does anyone have any idea of culinary experts in that field?
