JOALI Maldives<\/a>, the first and only art-immersive resort in the Maldives, welcomes pastry chef Eunji Lee to the island, sharing her edible art with guests from 3rd to 7th September 2024. Bringing a taste of her New York City dessert gallery Lyse\u00e9 to the Maldives, Chef Eunji will elevate the culinary experience at JOALI Maldives with an intimate pastry workshop as well as a custom dessert menu for guests to enjoy.<\/p>\n

Born in South Korea, Chef Eunji fulfilled a lifelong dream of studying pastry arts when she moved to France in 2006. Following pastry school, she spent three years in Ze Kitchen Galerie and then trained under Alain Ducasse and Cedric Grolet at Le Meurice for four years. In 2016, she became the Executive Pastry Chef of Jungsik, the two Michelin-star Korean restaurant in New York City, before opening her own pastry boutique, Lys\u00e9e in 2022 in the Flatiron District of New York City. Inspired by her love of pastry as edible art, Lys\u00e9e is named for chef Lee\u2019s sweet museum, derived from the French word Mus\u00e9e. Chef Eunji was named one of La Liste\u2019s Pastry Talents of 2023, Food and Wine\u2019s Best New Chefs of 2023 and a 2024 James Beard Award Semi-finalist for Outstanding Pastry Chef.<\/p>\n

While visiting, Chef Eunji will share her edible art with guests through an intimate workshop in JOALI Maldives \u2018Her Kitchen\u2019 on 7th September, sharing how to make the iconic French dessert: the \u00e9clair. Inspired by the islands, guests will learn to make a local fruit compote and vanilla cream as well as the fine art of piping which makes each \u00e9clair unique. Providing a luxurious professional kitchen setting, Her Kitchen allows guests to discover the joys of cooking and creating alongside the world\u2019s most talented chefs. During her week as visiting chef, Chef Eunji will bring her love of art in the form of desserts to the art-immersive island with a menu of three desserts for guests to enjoy in the evenings. The menu will include Lys\u00e9e cake, mango tart, and a local fruit cake.<\/p>\n
