About this ebook
The tasting chef - a collection of some artistic creations is a small sample of some of my recent creations. These dishes have been used in tasting menus, traditional menus or specials in some of the restaurants I have been chef at. For me, as a chef, I prefer to expand on dishes by using the "simple to spectacular" approach. What this means is that I start with simple classic recipes and expand on them to create a spectacular dish. Presentation is also very important to me as we also eat with our eyes. Please enjoy these and feel free to tweak them for your enjoyment. My goal is to provide all chefs with inspiration in the kitchen.
