I am culinary genius ala class chef

Hi food enthusiast my name is Wesley Papier Owner of Passion fruit private dining. I am a Head chef at awarding 5star hotel and owner of a private dining company. I have over 10years experience as a chef and worked in some of the most exclusive hotels, restaurants and cruiseship around world. I know it sounds like a cliché but my mother is my inspiration for being a chef. She would early morning 6am start cooking and the noise from the kitchen would wake me up, then I ended up on the kitchen table peeling vegetables or kneading dough. The best feeling is when you see a guest smile because of your food, that give me inspiration.
