I Forgot My Knives & My Pants Don't Fit: First Photo Shoot in Bangkok

Описание: I just did my first culinary photo shoot in Bangkok after a month at Cap Karoso—and honestly, nothing went as planned. I forgot my knives, my pants don't fit, and we only got 3 dishes shot instead of 8. But that's the reality of what happens before the "perfect" content. Here's the full breakdown.
This is part of WHERE IS CHEF JASON—my year-long journey learning from the world's best chefs before opening my restaurant in 2027.

🍗 CHICKEN & WAFFLES
A dish I developed for a benefit dinner with chef Shane Wooden. Elevated comfort food with precision plating.
🦐 ESCABECHE ON FISH CRACKER
A ceviche-style dish served on crispy fish cracker—light, bright, elegant.
🍄 BLACK TRUFFLE CAPPUCCINO
My signature dish. Sip it like a cappuccino. This is going on the restaurant menu.

📍 LOCATION: The Commons, Bangkok, Thailand
🎬 CONTEXT: First photo shoot of the journey / Series 0 preparation
👥 FEATURING: Polina (content director, support system)
