The Royal Thai Embassy has invited Keng Vichianrat to return to the Netherlands to host a 4-hands dinner with British-Dutch chef Chris Naylor, among other events. The event is part of Thai Kitchen to the World, a long-term project promoting Thai cuisine, gastronomy and ingredients worldwide. ‘By fusing the cuisines of Vichianrat and Naylor, Thai cuisine will not only be better understood, but also taken to a higher gastronomic level,’ says organiser Pasuwat Yathip of the Thai Embassy.
