Culinary Directors 廚藝總監, Tinoq and Dylan
Duo Tinoq and Dylan created PasirPanjangBoy, a private kitchen with the same name in Singapore and a secret place that is prized by gourmands. An intimate experience with only a table of 8-10 people served at a time. Due to the limited, refined menu, the restaurant is in high demand.
PasirPanjangBoy is actually considered a side hobby for both founders; they are well-known makeup artists in Singapore. They have worked with countless celebrities, including Constance Lau, one of the cast in the hit movie "Crazy Rich Asians." The red carpet makeup looks that premiered in Los Angeles and Singapore were created by them. Tinoq is a cheerful, lively, and humorous character, a descendant of North Indian, Thai Chinese heritage. His multicultural background gives him a natural affinity for Nyonya cuisine. He fell in love with cooking at a young age under the influence of the women of his family. While he still works as a makeup artist, he treasures being able to cook for his relatives and friends in his spare time.
Thirteen years ago, Dylan joined Tinoq's work team. After being inspired by him, they began to cook together, and as a result, formed the now-iconic partnership we see today. Tinoq said although he has been a makeup artist for many years, many of his clients have tasted his dishes, and they would often request him to cook for their birthdays or parties. He feels immense joy seeing others eating happily. As requested by their fans, they began accepting reservations four years ago. They arranged their living room in traditional Nyonya style and hosted friends and relatives every weekend. What they didn't know is that they unintentionally started a new venture in private cooking. The reason why the duo goes by the name PasirPanjangBoy is simple, it is named after the rural village in Singapore where Tinoq grew up.
PasirPanjangBoy 由一對好拍檔：Tinoq和Dylan 組成，而他們在新加坡經營的同名私房菜是城中饕客藏在口袋的美食秘點：每次只能做一桌8-10人的菜單，非常限量，一位難求。Jia Group 行政總裁C.E.O黃佩茵兩年前經朋友介紹訂位光顧，對他倆留下深刻印象：「菜做得好吃，而兩人的活力、個人風格也是一大亮點。」，為合作奠下了契機。事實上，經營私房菜只是Pasir Panjang Boy的興趣，他倆在新加坡是知名化妝師，合作的明星名媛不計其數，包括早前賣座電影《我的超豪男友》（Crazy Rich Asians）演員之一，劉佳鎂在洛杉磯和新加坡首映的紅地毯妝，便由他倆一手打造。開朗活潑逗趣的Tinoq是印度、泰國和華人混血兒，多元文化的基因似乎令他天生就懂得掌握娘惹菜的特質。他從小在家中女眷影響下愛上烹飪，後來從事化妝時工作，也不忘在閒暇為親朋好友下廚。
13年前，Dylan 加入 Tinoq 的工作團隊，被他的感染下開始一起動手做菜，遂而形成了今天的拍檔形式。Tinoq說，從事化妝師多年，不少客人嚐過他的手藝，都會要求為他們的生日或聚會掌廚，他喜歡看見別人吃得開懷的樣子，總是樂此不疲。在徇眾要求下，4年前他們開始接受訂位，把家中客廳佈置成充滿娘惹風情並且每逢週末於家中接待親朋好友，卻無意開啟了私房菜為副業的新篇章。這個組合取名為 PasirPanjangBoy 的原因很簡單，Pasir Panjang 在新加坡是鄉村，也是 Tinoq 長大的地方。
