allow me to introduce fat lamb
The idea behind Fat Lamb began from my passion to make Fat Lamb becomes a meeting spot, a socialize place among friends, family, or special that special someone. It must be truly infused with an uplifting and upbeat atmosphere which can be felt through each dish of Mediterranean – my version of an American Twist. I really think it is a unique experience. You are now officially invite to my pride and joy in Rama IX!
passion to action!
The origin of Mediterranean-American Twist cuisine since he graduated in Culinary Arts from Kendal College Chicago USA, his style is therefore quite American. However, he also takes great pleasure in the naturally healthy food of the Mediterranean with all of its flavors and healthful ingredients. He has worked in top hotels and restaurants as well as Michelin-American-Mediterranean restaurants in Chicago before, an area of his expertise and preference. He planned that, when the time is right, he would go on a food tour to taste all the local Mediterranean dishes in order to truly understand the food, culture, and people in this area.
the journey begins
Food Journey : Inspired by Traveling The history of Fat Lamb all began from an inspiration to travel and taste various dishes in the Mediterranean region from Greece, Turkey, Southern Italy, Spain, France, the Middle East, all the way to North Africa, etc. It was a way of ensuring that Mediterranean cuisine was truly his style that represents him and also had to be the type of cuisine that fits well with the healthy food trend favored by people from around the world at the moment.
Mediterranean healthy delicacy
Healthy Food is on the rise ….. Today, a healthy trend for healthy living is for those who love and pay extra care to their health. Therefore, Mediterranean cuisine fits perfectly well with this type of trend. The ingredients used include a variety of high-quality meat from free-range farms under natural environments, non-toxic seafood, milk, butter and honey from mountain tops, vegetables, fruits and herbs grown in chemical-free or non-polluted atmospheres, are all of the factors that add aroma, taste, and a touch of difference to the ingredients here that is like no other.
