Taste MIGF with Celebrity Chef Wan

“If your husband can’t give you an orgasm, I can give you MULTIPLE orgasms” – Chef Wan during Epicure Malaysia 2011. I still remembered how confident Chef Wan was with his recipes, techniques and food that could excite all female housewife apparently, heh.

Taste MIGF which replaced Epicure Malaysia was a big success. What other way is there to enjoy excellent fine dining food and service by well-respected chefs all gathered in one hall, one event and for one purpose; to bring gourmet food to a whole new level.

Besides tasting foods from the restaurants, seeing what the big players does did the exhibition, cooking classes by the professionals, and getting entertained by the great music. What interest me most was still to watch the winner of ‘The Best Celebrity Chef in the world Award’ in 2009 World Gourmand Cookbook & Media Awards in Paris.

Also as the Food Ambassador of Malaysia, he goes around the world to promote the best of Malaysia's heritage food.

MIGF 2012 Classical Chefs - Media Launch

It's that time of the year again! The world recognize, award winning gourmet festival is back. The Malaysia International Gourmet Festival(MIGF) this year is celebrated with the theme of "Classical Chefs".

For the entire month of October, twenty eight of Malaysia's gourmet restaurants will be serving special degustation(tasting) menus with special festival offers. The cuisines varies from Malay, Chinese, Indian, Japanese, French, Italian and Lebanese, and with new additions from South Korea and Latin America.

As for the public, this year MIGF will be going public with Taste MIGF. This event which is of free admission will be allowing the public to observe the fine dining scenes in Malaysia. Best of all, you could also taste all of the food with Taste Tokens which could be brought in a booklet at the cost of RM50.

The price of the dishes would be only priced from 1-3 tokens and each token is only at the price of RM5. Imagine tasting food from gourmet restaurant at RM5! That's unbelievable in my opinion, but it's just a way to let the public savour, enjoy and understand how good are the food at these restaurants.

This event will also be accompanied by gourmet village, cooking classes and wine appreciation. What are you waiting for? A one day event only at Sunway Pyramid Convention Centre this 28th September from 11am to 11pm.

Special Appearance of Chef Wan at Epicure Malaysia

What goes into your mind when you hear the name Chef Wan? To me, this Malaysian born celebrity chef is one hell of an entertainer and performer besides being just a chef. He never fails electrifies every single crowd he cook for. Not only through his performance skills and delicious food, but also with his humorous jokes. And before i forget, a really humble man too.

Datuk Chef Tok Wan with his newly published recipe book with all his best recipes compiled from all the years of cooking.

Besides being entertain by his perfomance, i really envy and at the same time respect him alot. Firstly, it just seems so fun to be a celebrity chef and secondly he brings Malaysian Cuisine around the world just to give more exposure to our local traditional heritage food . *thumbs up* to you as a Malaysian Food Ambassador!

During his perfomance in Epicure Malaysia that day, he cooked up a really different cuisine. Something not we are all used to, Moroccan Cuisine.

It was hard to see a close up of whats he was cooking above the stage. So, what he did to make us all understand his cooking was to carry the whole hot tajime just to let the crowd take a peek of whats cooking. Great stuff Chef Wan!

The first dish, Chicken Tajine, which were name after the special earthenware pot which is used to cook this dish

Harira Soup, a traditional Moroccan soup which is only serve only on special celebrations or to break fast during the Ramadhan month

Last but not least, Kefta Meatballs

After the whole cooking out and eating up, Dato' Steve Day personally went up the stage to thank him and also to promote and explain what Malaysia International Gourmet Festival (MIGF) was all about.

Besides his busy schedule around the world, he still made time to make an appearance in this event upon requests. Looking forward for more from you Chef Wan!
