Greetings Makan Kakis! This week, as we continue to celebrate females in the F&B industry, catch up with Chef-Owner of Morsels, Petrina Loh who first appeared on my show back in 2016. As she celebrates the 10th Birthday of her restaurant this year, she shares who she'd invite, what she'd serve and what song she'd play at her fantasy dinner party. A French chef made good in the USA, lots of vegetables and U2 just might be on the menu!

As we continue to celebrate females in the F&B industry, our Makan Kaki Chef-Owner of Morsels, Petrina Loh recommends a comforting bowl of prawn noodle soup. This one gives her old-school vibes because it tastes just like the kind she enjoyed as a child. Add lots of chilli powder and chilli padi to the umami dish and you've got a winner!
