Training On Chocolate Making In Shanghai

Bandar Seri Begawan - The Empire Hotel and Country Club recently sent one of its chefs for an eight-day-training programme at Laris restaurant at Three on the Bund, Shanghai, China.

Sarinah Nursyafigah Binti Muhd Marak, chef de partie, learnt to make chocolates under the direct supervision of David Laris and his team of chocolatiers in the Laris' Chocolate room, worked with its leading chefs and had a closer look at its other kitchens.

Sarinah enhanced her knowledge on chocolate making and acquired new skills in creating fine chocolates with distinctive recipes including chocolates flavoured with chilli, tobacco, green tea, jasmine, chrysanthemum, cracked pepper coconut ginger and more.

"This was the first time for me to undergo training outside Brunei and it was very exciting to be in a different country to learn new techniques in creating chocolate recipes. I really enjoyed the wonderful experience at Laris restaurant and I look forward to introducing my new skills to our Brunei guests," said Sarinah.

From April 29 to May 10, guests to The Empire Hotel & Country Club can experience chocolate delights by award-winning David Laris, world-renowned chocolatier and new world chef from Shanghai's Laris restaurant at Three on the Bund. This special promotion will include a chocolate afternoon tea at the Lobby Lounge, and chocolate creations during the dinner buffet and Sunday brunch at Atrium Cafe. Laris chocolate boxes are sold at the chocolate counter on the main lobby.

Guests can learn the secrets of fine chocolate recipes from David Laris at a special class on May 3 and 4 from 2pm to 5pm.

The David Laris event at The Empire is sponsored by Baiduri Bank and Royal Brunei Airlines.
