On November 17, 2024, RESOBOX hosted an event featuring celebrity chef Dominique Ansel at our Lower East Side space. The event was organized by The Pancake Princess, a popular blogger and YouTuber, for the release of Mr. Ansel’s latest cookbook, Life’s Sweetest Moments.
The event kicked off with a tasting session of Dominique Ansel’s desserts. After this, Mr. Ansel himself made an appearance, energizing the crowd. During the discussion, he shared stories behind his new recipes and cookbook, followed by a lively Q&A session. The atmosphere remained vibrant throughout the event.
To close the evening, Mr. Ansel signed copies of Life’s Sweetest Moments for the attendees, who were delighted with the opportunity to interact with the celebrated chef in person.
Additionally, we introduced a few Japanese ingredients, including Beni Haruka sweet potatoes from Kagoshima Prefecture, which piqued Mr. Ansel’s interest. He looks forward to experimenting with some of these ingredients at his Manhattan bakery in the near future.
