Be it noodles or curry or sides like spring rolls, Chef Yan has got the perfect recipe in his pocket awaiting viewers.
In this new series, Chef Yan will handpick eight different themes to feature in each episode, where he will then whip up four dishes that best represents a country and its unique food culture.
