Notes to Editors
About Chef Chalong Sakkapalangkul
Chef Chalong Sakkapalangkul continues to relentlessly seek for more knowledge on flavors, ingredients, cooking styles throughout his peregrinations from the United States, to Europe, the Mediterranean and passing through China, Japan and the Pacific. Although this pursuit for knowledge stays close to his heart, his real passion is to further transmit this knowledge and eagerness for cooking to young aspiring chefs that he takes under his wing and in his numerous brigades during the course of his exciting career. Chef Chalong has honed his skills in various types of cuisines, but always comes back to his first love of Thai dishes. He particularly likes to give his own little twist and enhance flavors on his favorite Thai food. Chef Chalong is now Executive Chef at dusit D2 and Dusit Princess Chiang Mai and will always be welcoming you to taste his culinary delights in both hotels on your next visit to the North.
About Khun Viravat Cholvanich
Khun Viravat Cholvanich is pursuing a lifelong dream in achieving to bring to the Kingdom of Thailand a wine of the finest quality. After a successful career in the steel and energy industries, Khun Viravat started his quest by searching for a place with the perfect soil, weather and sunny conditions and found the ideal terroir in the district of Wang Nam Keaw. The Village Farm and Winery was born. Since 2003, with the collaboration of the French maître de chai Jacques Bacou and the irreplaceable help of his daughter Khun Nu, he has produced two ranges of fines wines: Village Cellar red white and rosé, and the critically acclaimed, both nationally and internationally, Château des Brumes range. The Château des Brumes La Fleur is a true keeper as it will gain further complexity with careful cellaring.
