The KOREAN TOURISM ORGANIZATION (KTO) has been immensely supportive and we’re grateful for their sponsorship and arrangement for renowned chef Ms Nicky Kim to conduct cooking demonstration on both Saturday and Sunday afternoon.

Here’s Chef Nicky’s profile from THE TOTT WEBSITE

tottstore.com
Born in Seoul, Korea, Nicky Kim migrated with her family to Sydney, Australia at age 14. As her parents were both working, she became the family-chef where she discovered the joys of cooking. Nicky arrived in Singapore in 2004 where she was the Marketing manager, Asia Pacific, for an IT firm. Passionate about cooking, Nicky frequently entertains her friends with exotic dishes from all over the world. She later returned to her roots preparing the traditional Korean recipes she had learnt from her mother.

Propelled by the popularity of her Korean cuisine, Nicky’s Kitchen was founded in 2007, after the completion of her Master of Business Administration (MBA) studies. To ensure that she had a more consistent supply of traditional Korean ingredients that would enhance her cooking, Nicky created a balcony-farm. She has since launched her quest to source for only the freshest ingredients in Singapore for her cooking. Nicky recently graduated from At-Sunrice Culinary School with the Certificate of Food Preparation and has presented her culinary skills at major gastronomic conventions.


And, you can get to know Chef Nicky on a personal basis from HER BLOG.

Those of you who are interested to learn more about Korean cooking, you might wanna make your way down to BPP early since Chef Nicky’s demonstration is the first order of both days. We target to set the cooking ball rolling at around 2pm.

On Saturday, she’ll be showing us how to prepare the aesthetically beautiful and gastronomically sumptuous bibimbap! And on Sunday, she will share her recipe to make everyone’s favourite Korean food, tteokpoki.


The second item that we’ve prepared for you is a makeup demonstration presented by TONYMOLY.

For now, Kpop girl group Brown-Eyed Girls are still the brand’s ambassadors, alongside Song Joong Ki.

Is anyone familiar with Ga-In‘s eye makeup? Yes, her eye makeup is almost as famous as her singing prowess, especially her use of eyeliner.


In fact, in KBS’ Entertainment Weekly last October, Ga-In was asked, “What does eyeliner mean to you?” She’d answered, “Eyeliner means a lot to me. It’s for my job, it also helps me raise my self-esteem, it helps in everything.”

Guess it’s pretty obvious how important eye makeup is to her. She even went further to share her eyeliner techniques and was quoted to have said, “You just make the tail long and just scribble everything in really dark.”

You can read more about the KBS program HERE.


Many girls love love love smoky eye makeup, but at a loss as to how to create that look. And Ga-In has given lots of girls with small eyes hope and shown everyone how attractive girls with smaller eyes can be too. So TonyMoly has launched a makeup set that will help everyone re-create Ga-In’s look with ease, and yup, the set has everything you need to achieve the sexy smoky eye effect. And oh, the set is nicely titled the Bohemian Lace Look!

Here’s the Ga-In look created by the Bohemian Lace Look makeup set, and TonyMoly will be showing us how to do up those sultry eyes during the demonstration at BPP.
