By serendipity we found ourselves at another one of Chef Ton's ( of @ledubkk ) and brother Tam's joint, OK maybe more than coincidental considering it was the one of the small but notable collection of restaurants who swiftly opened their doors post restaurant-lockdown and thankfully they did! Couples could eat together in perfect harmony and families shared each other's company and plates in peace and safety.
Speaking of family, the restaurant's menu is all about family, it's even in the name! The dishes are inspired by the boy's grandparents and mother's recipes and if you poke your head upstairs, you'll find Thai " Pas' " (Aunties) tearing off fresh herbs and flipping piping hot woks. Legit and wholesome but not without a touch of glamour.
We loved the Lamb shank Massamam, the lamb was not melt-in-mouth, more like beefy-in-bite, meaning it had great chew and texture and without being "sous vide" into oblivion, but that secret Massamam sauce was the magic trick.
When we go, I am simply compelled to order the Thai fish cake . Something akin to my childhood memories, of Grandma making piles of them to snack on at any time of the day. Bouncy, sharp, herbaceous. @baanbkk version is a slightly fancier version which is garnished with fried kaffir lime leaves.
Another recommendation to make is the prawn dish, pretty much any prawn dish. Selecting and cooking prawns is just one of those things Chef Tons and his team does best. If it's a matter of indulging in a sophisticated yet casual Thai meal, then Baan Thai Family Recipe is pretty much the no brainier.

[Books / 書訊] Yann Brys 與 François Perret 主廚出版新書、 Fou de Pâtisserie 食譜書將出中文版 / Chef Yann Brys and François Perret publish their first books, Fou de Pâtisserie book launch traditional Chinese version soon (for English, please click “see more”)
我想法國主廚們跟書商完全沒有要讓消費者喘口氣的意思，11 月好書連發，最近輪到陀飛輪（tourbillon）創始人、擁有法國最佳工藝職人（MOF）頭銜的 Yann Brys 主廚和巴黎麗池酒店 Ritz Paris 的主廚 François Perret 出新書；甜點雜誌 Fou de Pâtisserie 去年出版的同名食譜書也確認即將推出中文版。
Yann Brys 主廚過去的資歷顯赫，他師承 MOF Philippe Urraca、在 FAUCHON 時在有「甜點小王子」之稱的主廚 Sébastien Gaudard Pâtissier 底下工作，接著經歷巴黎數個豪華酒店，包括宮殿級酒店（palace）的 Hotel Le Bristol Paris，然後前往 DALLOYAU。他在 2009 年發展了現在聞名世界的「陀飛輪」擠花手法，2011 年通過一系列的嚴格比賽與鑑定、獲得法國最佳工藝職人的頭銜，並在同年被任命為 Dalloyau 的創意總監。Yann Brys 主廚在這本即將在 11/27 上市的書中分享了以陀飛輪手法裝飾的多種蛋糕、還有其他或經典或創新的精彩作品。
現任 Ritz 酒店甜點主廚的 François Perret 的經歷也不遑多讓，他幾乎在巴黎所有宮殿級酒店都工作過，一開始在 Le Meurice、接著在 Four Seasons Hotel George V Paris，然後在 Hotel Lancaster Paris 擔任甜點主廚。2010 年他協助巴黎香格里拉飯店 Shangri-La Hotel, Paris 開幕，並很快幫後者的 L’Abeille 餐廳取得米其林二星。接著他加入 Ritz，這個歷經四年整修的巴黎傳奇宮殿級酒店在他與主廚 Nicolas Sale Officiel 的協力合作下，一年之後便分別為酒店內的兩個餐廳取得米其林二星（La Table d'Espadon）與一星（Les Jardins d'Espadon），他和 Nicolas Sale 也分別奪下 2017 年由《Le Chef》雜誌頒發的年度甜點主廚與年度主廚獎項。上月 François Perret 主廚再獲肯定，被 Les Grandes Tables du Monde 協會選為「meilluer pâtissier de restaurant du monde」（「全球最佳餐廳甜點主廚」）。如同書名「Instants sucrés au Ritz Paris」指明的，本書是以「Rtiz 的甜點時光」規劃，從早餐、午餐、下午茶、晚餐等都有相應的作品。François 主廚的的知名創作如瑪德蓮蛋糕、蜂蜜等都收錄其中。另外有一個好消息要跟台灣讀者分享，本書的繁體中文版已經被 大境文化&出版菊文化(生活美食地圖) 簽下，大家再稍等一下就能看到囉！
最後則是甜點雜誌 Fou de Pâtisserie 去年十月出版的同名食譜書，近日剛剛發表了德文版，同時也宣布簡體和繁體中文版即將推出。這是一本想要認識法式甜點經典、同時一覽法國主廚們各種精彩重新詮釋版本的讀者們必定要收藏的作品。書中精選了 17 種最經典的法式甜點，如 Baba 巴巴、Opéra 歌劇院蛋糕、Saint-Honoré 聖多諾黑泡芙、Tarte au citron 檸檬塔等，每個主題前先解釋該甜點的起源、並以詳細的步驟圖介紹一個最具代表性的作品，接著介紹該甜點的重要組成元素、然後呈現四五個不同的變化版本（全部由知名主廚提供），最後提供一個能夠使用市售商品與簡便方法，在家快速重現經典的食譜。能夠一次飽覽當代最知名的40 位甜點主廚們的作品、領略法式甜點不斷推陳出新的活力，大概也只有 Fou de Pâtisserie 可以辦到。
以下就請大家點開照片、也開始存錢準備囉😆👇🏻

This November is marked by beautiful pastry recipe books. If you still remember that we’ve talked about the books of the chef Yann Couvreur, Angelo Musa, and Michelin Guide, now there’re some more! The MOF chef Yann Brys and François Perret, head pastry chef of Ritz Paris are publishing their books this week as well. Moreover, Fou de Pâtisserie has just announced that their great recipe book is going to have its traditional and simplified Chinese versions soon.
Even if you don’t know the chef Yann Brys, you must recognise his world-renowned gesture “tourbillon” still, a technique to pipe cream on a turntable to create a whirl effect. He learnt a wide range of skills from another MOF chef Philippe Urraca, and then worked with Sébastien Gaudard, the “petit prince de la pâtisserie” when he was at Fauchon. He then went through several luxury hotels such as Concorde Lafayette (current Hyatt Regency Paris Étoile) and Hotel Bristol Paris. After that he joined Dalloyau and was named the Creative Director in 2011. He passed through a series of competitions and got his MOF title the same year. In this book “Tourbillon”, the chef shares with us lots of beautiful cakes employing the technique and his other creations as well as the know-how as a Meilleur Ouvrier de France.
Having worked at most of the Parisian palace hotels, François Perret, current chef pâtissier of Ritz Paris also boasts impressive experiences at Le Meurice, George V before he was appointed as the head pastry chef at Hotel Lancaster Paris. He joined Shangri-La Paris in 2010, assisting its opening and contributing to the Michelin two stars gained in two years for L’Abeille, the fine-dining restaurant at the hotel. He then joined Ritz and has been collaborating with the chef Nicolas Sale ever since. The legendary hotel situated on Place Vendôme reopened in 2016 after 4 years of renovation, but the duo has gained the hotel 3 Michelin stars in total in just a year - La Table d’Espadon got two stars and Les Jardin d’Espadon got 1 star in 2017. The both were further awarded as “Pastry chef of the year” and “Chef of the year” by the magazine “Le Chef” in the same year. François was elected as “Best restaurant pastry chef of the world 2019” last month by Grandes Tables du Monde. The book “Instant sucrés au Ritz Paris” presents those sweet moments offered by the hotel, starting from breakfast, wonderful pastries and desserts served in lunch time, tea time, and on dinner tables are all included. The chef’s signature desserts like the entremets Madeleine, Miel, Île flottante are also covered. Good news is that both the English and traditional Chinese version of the book are on their way. English and Chinese-speaking readers will only need to be patient for little while to learn more about the sweet universe of the chef.
Last but not least, the Fou de Pâtisserie book published last October is now having its German version. The traditional and simplified Chinese versions will be available soon, too. Collaborating with 40 great French pastry chefs, this book offers pastry passionates a wonderful opportunity to learn about those great French classics as well as their creative variations. 17 classic like baba au rhum, Opera, Saint-Honoré cakes, etc are presented. Their origins and legends are well explained, followed by a signature recipe illustrated step-by-step and presented by one famous chef, followed by four to five variations with real recipes provided by influential chefs. Then finally an express version using existing products sold in shops or supermarkets is featured. This is a fantastic book to glance through some of the best creations of our time and to learn the spirit of creation.

Hello friends! Today we're going to share with you how to make juicy oven-baked smoked BBQ ribs at home.
Copying and practicing a recipe from a famous restaurant is the most challenging thing, but it is very interesting and we learn new things from it. In this video, we copied the taste of the famous pepper ribs, but made some modifications, because some ingredients are not found in this city. Chili’s slow-cooked pork ribs has been a top seller on the menu since 1986 and is still the best seller today. So this is a must try.
To make smoked flavor BBQ ribs without a smoker, we slow cook in the oven, and make the Chili's BBQ sauce with smokey chipotle in adobo, or it can be made by liquid smoke instead. The flavor is found in the sauce, and the cooking secret is slow-braising which can keep the meat juicy and tender like the original. You can use the barbecue sauce suggested in the recipe below or use your favorite homemade or store-bought sauce. Hope you like it. Enjoy. :)

Hello friends! Today we're going to share with you how to make the classic chocolate milkshake with real sugar and high quality bittersweet chocolate.
Milkshake is a classic nostalgic and ultimate in retro comfort food. They became a common part of youth popular culture and a symbol of the youth. They are calorie-rich drinks but super yummy.
Actually it’s easy to make at home. In this video, the copycat recipe is from Shake Shack, which is the most famous restaurant in the United States. Their burgers get all the praise, but the shakes are really good, too. Especially the chocolate milkshake (black and white shake). Good news is you don’t need to visit the restaurant, if you have this classic Shake Shack easy chocolate milkshake recipe on hand.
In this recipe, the fudge sauce is the secret of the perfect taste. Always use real sugar and high quality bittersweet chocolate to make it. The fudge sauce is similar to French chocolate ganache. There's so many uses for this, like to use it as topping for ice cream, or drizzle for cake. Also we prepare another delicious Oreo milkshake for kids. Since now is summer.
Ready to make your own high quality milkshake? You need just a few ingredients and several minutes to mix in your blender. Just do it. Cheers.
