Mandarin Oriental Kuala Lumpur's new Executive Pastry Chef Claus Olsen

Chef Olsen has always had a fondness for making desserts and said that his baking gene comes from his grandfather. “I grew up in my grandfather’s bakery in Copenhagen. The creativity in a bakery is amazing. You can’t do so much with a piece of beef, whereas you can play [a lot] more when making pastry,” said the Danish chef, who started his career at the age of 14. Although he had many creative ideas for gala dinner’s dessert course, chef Olsen settled on simplicity and flavours, and paid particular attention to the presentation of the dish.

 

Described as the "Faberge of Footwear" and accredited with creating the first stiletto heel in the 1950's, Roger Vivier designed extravagant, luxuriantly embellished shoes he described as sculptures. Roger Vivier today proffers a unique experience of imperceptible paradoxes, set soaring through a spectacular universe of dreams and desires, enchanting the most elegant and fascinating of women the world over.

Available from 2:30pm to 6pm, the stylishly delicious set showcase exquisite details on delicacies representing the legendary brand. The 13 artistically-prepared, hand-crafted pieces include Iconic Handbag Butter Cake, Frosted Scottish Shortbread, Pot de Cream Macaroon and Green Tea Milk Choux. Food as well as fashion patrons will enjoy dainty finger sandwiches such as Cream Cheese with Carrot and Cucumber Pickles, Truffle- chicken Salad and Asparagus Mini Croissant, delicate scones with clotted cream and strawberry jam, as well as a selection of other bite-sized desserts in lovely company of family or friends.
