Wanitha Tanasingam was born to cook! Her father was the Head Chef for the Kedah Royal Family in Malaysia. Some of her earliest memories are of being propped up on a stool, learning the difference between sour, bitter, salty and sweet!
Growing up in Penang, Wanitha moved to Australia in 1982, started a restaurant and founded a cooking school.
Her passion and enthusiasm for food and cooking soon saw her appearing at public events, leading to invitations to appear on morning television
(Channel 7) and cable TV
(In the Kitchen) as a regular Asian chef.
Wanitha teaches
Malaysian Hawkers Delight Cooking Workshop at Paris International Cooking School.
