Chef Sharwin Tee, one of local televisions most beloved chefs, will have his turn to share wit, humor and of course, truly delectable dishes on August 29, Saturday, 9am-1pm at the The Maya Kitchen’s Elite Culinary Series.
A self-described Filipino food pimp and bacon eater, Chef Sharwin will prepare Arugula Salad with Warm Bacon Vinagairette, “Cuick” Clam Chowder, Bacon-Wrapped Fish and Mango Salsa, Bacon Mallow Bombs (his very own version of S’mores) and Waffles and Bacon with Hoisin Sauce. Students and guests get to watch him prepare his dishes and taste each one after the demo.
Chef Sharwin admits to being fascinated with cooking as early as 6-years old. He, however, only cooked his first-ever dish at 14 and, you guess it, it’s bacon wrapped cheese. He went to the Pacific Institute of Culinary Arts in Vancouver, Canada to finally make real his culinary dream.
He became a personal chef, joined and won The Clash of the Toquen Ones and became the chef and host of Curiosity Got the Chef, the Philippines’s Lifestyle Network’s first locally produced cooking show. It is now on its 5th season and is now shown in the United States, Canada, Singapore and Australia. It airs locally on the Lifestyle Network at 9:30pm every Thursday with a replay on Saturday at 8:30am.
Chef Sharwin has also added cookbook author to his list of accomplishments. Curiosity Got the Chef: The Cookbook, a glossy, full-colored book, containing 35 recipes from Season 1. Chef Sharwin has worked for the Embassy of Canada, The Tower Club in Makati and has been guest chef for Discovery Shores, Boracay; Holiday Inn, Makati; Sheraton Abu Dhabi in the United Arab Emirates and at Swisssotel, Moscow.
