Summary
Ivan Brehm is the chef-owner of restaurant Nouri and the creative space Appetite in Singapore. As a chef, he is known for his thoughtful approach to food, creativity and "Crossroads Thinking”, emphasising the connections and interdependence of all things, extending beyond cooking. This comes partly from his multi ethnic heritage and childhood in São Paulo in Brazil. As a young chef, he left Brazil and worked in some of the world’s best restaurants that left a clear mark on his cooking philosophy, like Thomas Keller’s Per Se, Andoni Luis Aduriz’s Mugaritz, and Heston Blumenthal’s The Fat Duck. In this podcast, we will hear Ivan Brehm tell his story, and how he combines cultural exploration, history, anthropology, and culinary traditions into a collective exploration of food and meaning. He will also reveal his favourite restaurants in Singapore and the rest of the world.
