Gulf Weekly Asian culinary king joins Coral Beach Club

THE Coral Beach Club’s latest culinary recruit, Chef Goy, hails from the Thai capital Bangkok. 

Goy began cooking at home with his family from a very young age and it was quickly apparent that this young man had a flair for the culinary arts. 
He attended the Institute of Arts & Food Service where he earned his degree and dived straight into the deep end of Bangkok’s hotel and restaurant scene.  Such was his ability that he was recruited to work in Malaysia, which led him to follow the path of the “quick cuisines” to Hong Kong and Kowloon. 
A hunger for travel landed him in Dubai for a number of years and he has now found himself at the helm of a new adventure as the Asian Fine Dining Chef at Coral Beach Club at Marina Beach, Manama, where he will no doubt be taking culinary excellence to yet another level.
Today he shares one of his favourite recipes with GulfWeekly readers.
