In the dynamic and fiercely competitive world of Bangkok's fine dining, Chef Chalee Kader stands out as a true visionary, not for inventing a new cuisine but for masterfully elevating a street food staple to the level of Michelin-starred art. At his restaurant Wana Yook, Kader has taken the beloved Thai concept of "khao kaeng"—a simple dish of rice and curry—and transformed it into an elegant and profound culinary journey.
Prin was always in the background of the transformation of Thai food from ethnic cuisine to world cuisine. Sala Rim Naam restaurant at the Mandarin Oriental (then Mandarin) was his first workplace. He learned Thai cuisine in the restaurant that was the face of the hotel, which was also the face of Bangkok to the world.
