Tanoshii clinched the Best First Cookbook award at the Gourmand World Cookbook Awards 2013 and continues to be a bestseller. The Author: Chef Yamashita trained at the Tsuji Culinary Institute, a well-known and respected culinary institute in Osaka, Japan. He gained experience working at various patisseries around Japan for a decade before starting his own patisserie in Nara, which quickly became one of the top patisseries there. Eight years later, yearning for new challenges and a change of scenery, chef Yamashita moved to Singapore where he took charge of the kitchen at Patisserie Glace, turning it into a haven for delightful cakes and pastries. Chef Yamashita soon saw an opportunity to revive his patisserie from Japan and re-established Flor Patisserie at Duxton Hill, Singapore. Today, chef Yamashita runs his own highly successful Japanese artisan patisserie at Tangjong Pagar Plaza, aptly named Chef Yamashita.
