Bobby Chinn

Honestly I did not know who Bobby Chinn was when I was reading about his book signing at Diwan. He seemed very interesting , half Egypt -half Chinese "oh yes" working as a chef or rather a celeb chef and as someone who always follows the achievements of Egyptians or half Egyptians I decided to know more about MR. Chinn who appeared in almost all the lifestyle magazines this month in Egypt.
Bobby as mentioned above is half Egyptian-half Chinese 'it is easy to guess which parent is Egyptian' born in New-Zealand ,educated in England and then moved to the States to peruse a different new career other than business. His journey did not end there ,in fact it had just started he became a chef with passion to Asian food , he moved to Vietnam to learn its cuisine where he settled down. It seems that Vietnam was good for as he opened a famous restaurant there , wrote a book about the Vietnamese cuisine and had his own TV show too !!
Bobby Came lately late to market his book in Egypt , it is nice thing for sure but it would nicer if Sharif Madkour host him to see the complete madness live on TV.
I wish all the luck and success to Chinn but I hope that he does not neglect his mother's homeland cuisine as it is very rich . I wish that the lifestyle magazines to be kind enough to tell us who is MR.Bobby Chinn as not all of us are familiar with the Chinese or Vietnamese cuisine also I would like to remind them that our cuisine is not that bad or old fashioned.
