Margarita Forés, awarded only a few days ago as Asia's Best Female Chef 2016 within the 50 Best Asia, will be at Identità Milano on Monday
“What generates life?”. This is the main theme to which Filipino chef Margarita Forés dedicates her speech on Monday at Identità Milano. This is also the focus of her work, which led her to win, a few days ago, the award for Asia’s Best Female Chef 2016 in Bangkok, we wrote about it here. On the day before the award ceremony in the capital of Thailand, she told us in a heart-to-heart interview, partly in English and partly in Italian (she speaks the language well): «Motherly instinct has always guided me in my life as well as in the kitchen. I learnt to be a mother from my son Armando and I’m a mother to my team. Just like when I was young and I found professional mothers in Italy, who helped me understand my road and develop my passion for the cuisine of your country».
