How Master Chef Craig Wong Runs his Iconic Jamaican-Chinese Restaurant — Mise En Place
At Patois in Toronto, chef Craig Wong takes the techniques he learned cooking at three-Michelin-starred French restaurants and applies them to the flavors he grew up within Jamaican-Chinese dishes. Aided by his right-hand-man chef Nicholas Beckford, the two create dishes like jerk chicken chow mein, jerk pork belly yakisoba, and more.

I know this has nothing to do with how amazing this food looks but when hes chopping wood on concrete he should probably put something under it so it doesn't dull the ax.
Jamaican and Philippine dishes look and sound quite intriguing. OX tail I have never tried
Reminds me of a Korean bbq / Chinese bbq my mother asian friend makes extremely good combo of the two traditional American bbq mixed with her orientals dishes.
It ain't a jamaican kitchen if you ain't washing dem yardbirds….
IN MY VIEW
I give this Chef a standing ovation for his creatively combining Chinese and Jamaican dish recipes! He has what I define as “Wow” flavors. The only negative is some of the presentations are visually dull.
Why would you add Browning to oxtail to make it bitter? I have never cooked with or use browning. that's for baking. But each does their thing differently
Chef Wong serves some real tasty Jamaican fusion dishes. If you are in the area, on your next visit to the CN Tower or Ontario Place. Stop in to sample his food. Good food, good service, good Patty. A huge taste of Jamaica. Taking traditional dishes up 10 notches.. The Chinese Burger tasted as if the cow was bred next door…lol according to the burger connoisseur..it was that fresh and tasty..
Each cocktail comes with a side of patty.. very. pleasant surprise… Stop in for good Jamaican fusion cuisine. Definitely worth the trip..

Where is this located
In stead of ritz use water crackers
He said "stoosh"
Road trip to Toronto.
Lobsters and all crustaceans should be stunned or humanely killed before getting cooked. I’m hoping masterchefs set example in animal welfare.
Someone please tell that poor Torontonian that is NOT how you chop wood. Get that poor guy a chopping block 😳
Ya'll think he got the pass?
Everyone need a chef Nick in their lives
This looks really good.
Thank you, Chef Wong. Your post brings back delightful memories of trips to your dynamic island with a native daughter, Cindy Chang.
Deliciousss 😋
Yup totally true they can go to another restaurant

I realized he put an Asian guy in a bar above the black guy in the kitchen and the white chick under him,took the cameras up there so you know🤫🤣
🇯🇲🇯🇲🇬🇧🇬🇧
He's pretty good but I can tell behind the scenes and between the lines he's a bit too controlling.
Marvelous
Awesome.
Once again 🇯🇲 shows talent, dedication and commitment
Chef acknowledged he was wearing Jordan bred 1's to chop wood! 😃
Will definitely visit next time in Toronto
