Top of the Citi and Chef Jessie at the Rockwell Club, both in Makati, are some of the must-try fining dining restaurants in Manila. When it’s simply not possible for you to go to these places, learn how to make light, healthy and delicious dishes from the master herself, Chef Jessie Sincioco in a class she will present at The Maya Kitchen on January 26, 9am to 1pm.
Among the dishes that Chef Jessie will teach in the class are: Sweet & Regular Potato and Yam Chips with Tzatziki, Salad from “MY” Garden any and all greens that one can find in their
garden with a special Chef Jessie’s dressing, Steamed Organically Grown Jade Perch en Papillote, Ostrich with Bourguignonne Sauce & Assorted Mushrooms Roulade Served with herbed couscous and choice vegetables. She tops off this impressive gourmet spread with a demo on how to make souffle.
Josefina Cruz Sincioco (the full name of Chef Jessie) is a discovery of The Maya Kitchen. She was then a novice baker when she won the grand prize in the baking category of the Great Maya Cookfest way back in 1983. Her 3-month training at the Hotel Inter-Continental Manila after the competition turned into a full time job with the property. She was sent to train abroad, joined local and international competitions and in 1990, she became the first Filipina pastry chef in the history of the hotel.
The chef who, at first, did not have a liking for the smell of the kitchen found initial fame when she, along with expatriate partners, turned the restaurant Le Souffle into a fine dining mecca.
