Favourites
Among Olivia's standout creations is the "Leek à la Passionfruit." Conceived on the fly during her time at a resort, this vegetarian fine dining dish emerged from necessity and ingenuity. Inspired by the classic French "Leek à la Vinaigrette," Olivia added a twist by infusing the vinaigrette with the tangy acidity of passionfruit. The result? A harmonious marriage of flavors that has since become a culinary masterpiece in her repertoire.Cusines
