Recently i was invited to attend a Frozen Dessert Workshop by Chef Rayomund Pardiwallaby at Movenpick Hotel and SPA, Bangalore . How could i say no to a learning oppurtunity ?! I am happy that i took the right decision to be a part of the fun filled informative event .
I reached ” My Place ” – one of the restaurants in Movenpick Group on time . The first glimpse of the restuarant was just Wow !! The ambience was mind blowing . Conveniently accessible within 40 minutes from the airport, the Mövenpick Hotel & Spa Bangalore embodies Indian hospitality delivered with Swiss passion.The hotel offers stylish settings for social gatherings and conferences spread across 25000 square feet of event space. ” My Place ” resturant at Movenpick is known for its Lavish Large Buffet Spread.
Though we couldnt taste the buffet that day as it was already tea time , we did relish few snacks that was offerd to us .
After satisfying our tummy , now it was time to interact with Chef Rayomund Pardiwallaby . Inspite of being th executive Chef at Movenpick , Mr . Rayomund was such a simple , down to earth person . We ( students for the day ) were almost 12 , but still he was there for everyone , attended everyones query with full enthu , patience and interest . Thx Chef !! Making of frozen dessert seemed so easy under your guidance.
We first started with easiest Fresh Mango Sorbet .

Last but not the least dessert for the day were Frozen Key lime pies .
With this dessert , the lovely master class with Chef was over and it was time to indulge all the above frozen desserts and many more . An array of beautiful desserts was laid for us . Each dessert looked so tempting and beatiful .. that i didnt feel like cutting / eating it .
Overall a great evening spent with friends cooking ,learning and tasting lovely Desserts. To add to it,the Chef was so down to earth and lively. He made us feel so comfortable by cracking few jokes, sharing his stories.. the whole session was so interactive. Thanks Movenpick again.
