Noche Buena, Chef Sau’s Style at The Maya Kitchen

It’s Noche Buena ala Chef Sau del Rosario on December 5, Saturday, 9am to 1pm for The Maya Kitchen Elite Culinary Series.

Chef Sau will demonstrate Tamales, rice flour simmered with coconut, annatto and shrimp stock topped with peanuts, chicken and quail eggs; Chicken Galantina, ground chicken, chorizo, Vienna sausage, capers, raisins, eggs, ham and bacon; Salt-Baked Salmon, salmon covered then cooked with egg whites and salt served with orange and rosemary beurre blanc sauce; and Brazo de Mais, infused with corn and molded to look like a real corn. It is stuffed with pastry cream and layered with egg whites.

Chef Sau del Rosario can credit his culinary talent to his Kapampangan roots. He studied at the University of the Philippines for a bachelor’s degree in Hotel and Restaurant Administration and obtained culinary education in Paris, France. He worked in Michelin restaurants in Nice, Paris, Shanghai, Bangkok and in Raffles Singapore.

Chef Sau moved back to Manila 8 years ago and he opened the restaurants Chelsea, M Café and Le Bistro Vert to mention some. Today, Chef Sau is the Culinary Director for Center for Culinary Arts Manila (CCA).  He is also a recipient of Most Outstanding Kapampangan Awards for Culture (MOKA) and a few months ago, he added author to his many accomplishments by publishing his own cookbook, 20 Years of Love + Cooking.

The ever creative and energetic chef will soon open 2 restaurants, ‘Lola’s Boy’ in Angeles City set to welcome diners on December 15 and ‘93 North’ along H.V. dela Costa Street, Salcedo Vilage, Makati which is set to open in February 2016.
