We recently had the pleasure of having Celebrity Chef “Chef Wan” visit The Eastern & Oriental Hotel whilst he was filming a segment of his upcoming “Glorious European Food” series that will soon be aired on the Asian Food Channel. (AFC)
Chef Wan was fantastic and entertained us no end with his humor and antics, the ladies loved him the most as he really does know what to say to them and how to deliver his flattery with the maximum impact.
Chef Wan knows how to cook, how to entertain and really does have his feet firmly and humbly on the ground.
He was telling me that he talks to Oprah Winfrey quite often and that he has a soon to be aired cooking segment and interview on her show, which as we know has a world wide audience.
Well done Chef Wan, whom although has been granted the title of Datuk, still loves to be called Chef Wan as he knows the value of his internationally rated brand.
Wow, didn’t know that Chef Wan is going on Oprah. So Malaysian food will now get an airing in the US big time. Well done!
Hi May,
Malaysian food is going to be just fine, we have had lots of celebrity chefs here lately including Gordon Ramsay and Rick Stein from the UK who are going to write about our food.
Please do now worry as we are well on our way!
Thanks for dropping by and please tell your Malaysian friends to drop by too.
Warm regards,
Mike.

well done chef wan……
In life, its not always bed of roses. Chef Wan went through lots of hardship. A career change is almost a 100% dangerous & a divorce can bring a man with disastrous consequences. Yet he managed to single handedly brought up his kids & recently his daughter’s marriage was a lived telecast on Malaysian TV programs.
Not only the wedding will cost him in finance but also in both physical & mental stress. Not every ordinary man can do this, the amount of exertion is not easy. I wish this man can really enjoy his rest of his life as he has gave a lot, he deserved full respect & love from everyone.
