Perth Chefs take over Shangri-la Bangkok
1st – 8th July 2001

Two young Perth Chefs, Troy Nebe & Benjamin Christie are transforming the Shangri-la Bangkok’s street market styled restaurant the Maenam Terrace into an Aussie Bush Tucker Barbeque. The restaurant overlooking the Chao Phraya River will play host to the Chefs from the 1st of July through till the 8th of July. 

The large showcase of Australian produce includes native items such as Pepperberry, Wild Rosella, Bush Tomatoes, Marron & Wild Boar to name a few. The Maenam Terrace Restaurant allows for ‘live cooking stations’ where Australian dishes will be cooked directly in front of guests. These dishes include wattleseed marinated veal cutlets, macadamia nut crusted crocodile fillets & pepperberry crusted Gippsland beef fillet. 

Native Australian ingredients, as used by the Aboriginals are becoming very popular, particularly with European & Asian Hotels as they explore Australia’s unique cuisine in their restaurants. 

Chefs Unlimited, based in Perth specialises in the organisation of Australian Promotions with Hotels, Resorts & Cruiselines in con-junction with major Government bodies to stimulate Australian Tourism and promote the Australian style of Bush Tucker and the wide selection of Wines available
