What was your background and journey of growth?
As a proficient food consultant and chef owner, I have expertise in various culinary styles such as French, Japanese, and pastry. My passion for desserts and pastry was reinforced in 2011 when I received a bronze medal in the junior Asian chef challenge at the Salon Culinaire competition FHI. I honed my pastry skills while working at The Ritz Carlton Abu Dhabi under Executive Pastry Chef Laurent Allereau, who imparted invaluable knowledge on the intricate details, chocolate, and pastry foundations. Currently, I leverage these skills, attitudes, and knowledge to curate new products with dynamic flavors at my establishment, Steaklab Surabaya.
Why did you choose to use Pâtissier Chocolate?
I am inspired by Pâtissier Chocolate's innovation line of chocolate couvertures that functions like baking chocolate but is available in all-natural flavors such as earthy and nutty. This chocolate range represents a game-changing ingredient that elevates desserts to a new level of sophistication.

What is your inspiration behind creating the above recipes?
1. ORANGE CHOCOLATE MOMENTUM
I always falling in love with the marriage of chocolate and orange. It is a match of exotic and highly sought after equals from the old world, my experiences and imagination made me to construct the flavor note in a modern touch. And we knew the combination is a match made in heaven, they never betray us!
2. FAN-TASTIC LAYERS
When I created this dessert, I inspired from the Japanese fan, , the Japanese fan is an immediately recognizable icon of Japanese culture, its more than a tool for cooling down on a hot day, it also remains an artistic medium and functional fashion accessory. I tried to express this “artistic element” into the dessert. The combination
Between chocolate mousse with pistachio will give the right blend and balance of flavor.
