Thanannat, also known as “Kwang,” grew up in a family where everyone had a passion for cooking. Her grandmother played a significant role in shaping her culinary skills, teaching her the art of making chilli paste and instilling a love for cooking. With experience as a manager at Privee restaurant in Botanic Gardens, Kwang dreamt of starting her own culinary venture. Together with her mother-in-law, Kwang created a home-based business named “imaim” sharing their culinary expertise. Their joint efforts in cooking and preparing orders have fostered a deep connection, making each dish infused with love and care.
Kwang’s brother-in-law Jasper Leow and his good friend Lucas Ding will also be preparing Singaporean food to complement the meal. Also, staying at Senja Close, the family frequently gathers over meals, where they exchange food and have conversations with one another. Lucas Ding is a professional cook specialising in recreating local Singaporean food. The duo dreams of starting a home business that showcases local food.
