I worked pastry stations in a couple Michelin restaurants. This chef is more of a boss than people probably realize. He’s making it look chill. It is not.
He is actually the coolest. He’s doing an incredibly tough job. Making birthday cakes. Communicating clearly. Had a a lovely little herb garden. Very skilled at his job. Even his sourcing of his ingredients and making sure stuff isn’t wasted. He takes over the hardest jobs. What a guy!
What a sympathetic and talented chef! Those shots of the small details he does, while preparing the food, are really showing his skill. Also things like, when he asked his colleague what she would rather do, is so refreshing. I bet working in this team must be so enjoyable!
Putting those dainty little flowers on the peach dessert is a whole skill in and of itself, not to mention getting it done in a consistent, timely manner. I'd be mentally wiped!
With a freaking illustration on top nonetheless! Reminds me of my colleague who did a special painting for each of the staff member on their tip pocket since we split tips equally by time working. She spent like 2 hours painting each to a specific theme. Some people are just angels... and monsters... at the same time!!!
I've worked in a few high-octane Michelin star restaurants, the team can be very talented but if you don't have a familial relationship then you slowly start regretting your time there. When people are like the ones in this video, the feeling you have every day is amazing, knowing that everyone is an extension of each other.
You mean because you feel like an outsider? I've been thinking of applying toMichelin resturants as a server so don't know. I've worked in regular restaurants,but never Michelin.
I know it's very silly to compare this, but in high school for a class project me and my friend sold grilled cheeses at lunch. We got super overwhelmed, totally underestimated how hard it would be. Some classmates jumped into the kitchen to help and once we had a flow going it felt really cool!
Kitchen staff are one of the least renowned hard workers in any industry. I have so much respect for what it takes to deliver that Michelin star service!
I thought they are some of the most renowned hard workers? I think that's what you meant (they are famous for working very hard), and they are! It's a grueling job if it's not your passion. ;)
I enjoyed it. I was only ever taught to test with pressure, but that can A) bruise them and B) be unreliable if the fruit wasn't shipped carefully and is already bruised
this video awakened my burning desire to do exactly what he does!!!!! i have been in the culinary industry for about 10 years now and im just TIRED. I feel like im loosing my touch, but this video was very inspiring. thank you. i will be watching it a million more times!!
As a service worker this is so crazy it gives me a headache. Knowing what needs to be given attention, made, and prepared for service is incredible. Kudos to him and everyone in that restaurant
Such a pleasure to see Mac working. The care and detail, the creativity, and his obvious joy making birthday cakes for staff just make this a great video. Thank you Mac and BA for sharing with us!
Mac, I am so glad you found a great place to be creative and get paid for it! For those of you who live near Providence, you must be very lucky to be able to experience that tasting menu! Great!
incroyable, fantastique, l'essence même de la passion qu'il faut développer pour pouvoir produire de petit chef d'œuvre. Vraiment l'humain peut parfois exceller dans la maitrise de sa passion...17 minutes de bonheurs.
Eater made a doc about the owner of the restaurant aswell, if you were curious about the seafood side of the restaurant. It's called: "How One of LA's Best Chefs Runs a Two-Michelin-Star Wild Fish Restaurant - Mise En Place".
It’s ignorant to make comments like this. Really, would you have made this comment about another race? Even if it’s your own. The mistake of people who comment on surface level things like appearance is not realizing they are revealing they are shallow and harbor a great deal of insecurity
When there is something in my workplace, i have to make card for somebody, once i had to make a card for myself 😅 at least i didn't have to find and to buy book for myself 😆
He seems really cool. He has a long career ahead of him. Hope to taste his food. I’ve worked at a few top LA restaurants and we had a really mean one at Craft. When you cook desserts with love and positivity, it shows in the food.
Looks wonderful! And he makes his employees a birthday cake!! ANNNND there are absolutely zero ignorant comments here about portion sizes, YAYYYY!!!🤩🤩🤩 Edit: Of course, ignorant comments about gloves and hairnets. Had to be something foolish smh🤦🏻♂️
@mkmartin559 Because it’s not necessary, gloves affect one’s dexterity, and pick up tons of dirt and particles along the way unless you continually replace them every five seconds (have you ever heard of someone washing their “gloves”). Whereas professional kitchen staff do wash their hands on a mind-boggling basis. And as for hair nets, also not a requirement, just a trend picked up by fast food establishments, and trivial when one considers the amount of dead skin and sweat and particles flying around a hot kitchen in general that cannot be avoided unless everyone is wearing a hazmat suit.
Just great. I loved watching and learning. I like Paco'd for the Pacotizing on the ice cream and sorbets. I like seeing how the deserts start and finish when served.

If you dint mind, can you give us an example? How does this guy make it so chill compared to other michelin restaurants?
They say that a sign of a true professional or someone who has true talent is making something look effortless when it's anything but.

he is so calm and so humble, loves to explore and still wants to learn 😮😮 the restaurant has found a gem like this guy
makes me want to eat there 😋
I am so impressed by this young chef. Please bring him back again!
Yes! He's awesome.
🤔 lordy CHILD this is what is wrong with food!
Don't think he is as young as u think
the way he just talks and describes things, i could listen to him all day LOL. its very relaxing and satisfying
@@김승훈-c7p he is 27 :)
He is so talented...showcase more pastry chefs please!
Hold on lemme finish my 3 years of studying for it and then I might appear here.

my favourite part is where he says, you can tell when a peach is ripe when you smell it and it smells like a ripe peach
tbh he also said it's not grean at the stem area
You can tell a lot of fruits are ripe by pretty much smelling them
Everyone knows ripe smell smelling ripe like a ripe like smell like ripe

So impressive to be elected pastry chef at 23! Loved this video!! Would love to try Providence once day.
i checked and its about $300 per person, excluding tip and gratuity. HEAVY on the one day lol
@@kiorasmommy you have 70 employees, you have to pay for them
What a genuinely nice guy. Down to earth and cares about others in the kitchen. Xx
Until you kiss him on the head and he gives a death stare 😂
I wanted to be a pastry chef when I was a kid. It looks like Mac has so much fun at his job.
It shows he actually cares about his team to make their birthday cakes!
I love how happy he is with what he is doing. ❤
happy to see filipino’s thriving in america doing what they love
Mac, I am so glad you found a great place to be creative and get paid for it! For those of you who live near Providence, you must be very lucky to be able to experience that tasting menu! Great!
“Today’s Paul’s birthday so we’re making him a cake” 😭
"Today's Paul's Birthday so he's going to get fired. Happy Birthday Paul." 😐
Would love to see more pastry chef videos! I love anything that has to do with dessert 🤩
❤❤❤❤❤❤
I noticed he liked his job even before he said it. Sometimes you can say it and not mean it, but he didn't have to. He has found his place.
Hes so relaxed and confident, moreso in front of a camera. More of him please!
Had the pleasure of working under him last summer. Extremely inspirational especially at his young age!
“Now nobody uses it, because everything tastes like chocolate.” Sounds perfect for kale smoothies and other health foods! 😂
My only complaint is too short! Love watching the best part of any meal being made. What's the deal with table 10 getting something different?
They have a set course menu so almost certainly a customer at table 10 had an allergy.
Or they visit two nights in a row
peach allergy is pretty common, so I suspect a peach allergy.
I love listening to him, he truly cares about his craft and I loved how he walked us through the process of yummy desserts. He truly is gifted.
"There's dates on them, but you want to confirm them - by tasting them." Brilliant sentence. Love you.

This was really fantastic to watch! Thank you!
This is amazing. I love humans and the things we do to not only survive but also enjoy ourselves and others.
I like this chef. He's chill, but professional and highly skilled. Desserts are the best.
I had to write down that peach syrup recipe. - Pro Cook
24 quarts of water
1 cup sugar
2 Large bunches of Red Shiso
2 bottles sake
3-4 oz Yuzu
The artistry being displayed here is off the charts.
And to think, he does it all with only one eye!
The polite "out!" at the end lmao

Thanks for the reference. Just watched it and really enjoyed it.
I can watch an hour of Mac just doing prep!
This was delightful to watch. What an inspiring chef!
❤❤❤❤
he is so inspiring! and calming to watch. bring him back please
He’s dead serious and a bit dorky, hence the early senior promotion. Bravo, dude.
I love that he still makes time to make a birthday cake for another chef! so sweet
Such a fun video! What an inspiring young chef, so impressed
I aspire to handle life in the same chill & easy going way. What a human
Wow. That seems amazing. A restaurant having their own backyard garden. Takes fresh ingredients to a new level.
an absolute gem
13:29 excellent use of “waste”! THAT’S a tea I would drink!
It’s nice to see a nerd in charge. He loves what he does. 👌🏻
Wow he's really loveable, kind and the energy is immaculate. So passionate!!!! LOVE THIS!
Great to see people out there who love their jobs so much!
More Pastrychefs like this please! (:
What a amazing Chef. The staff looks so dedicated to the craft and profession. Im sure that third star will come soon.
Talented and so creative! I was amazed by thought and heart that went into thinking about the ingredients. Cool segment.
13:29 excellent use of “waste”! That’s a tea I could drink
It's always satisfying to see people talking about their craft so passionately. I love it! 💕
he looks soooo filipino. plus the accent. not to mention the talent/skills 🔥
Yeah lol

what a nice pastry chef. he's so eloquent that everything he demonstrated seemed easy (when we all know it's not)
everything is so precise and clean
Finally, the sweet side is getting some love! So many people focus only on the savory chefs.
But who makes HIS birthday cake when it’s his birthday?
They forget about him every year 😢

Okay, educate us: why don't they wear hair nets or hats in this kind of kitchen?

He got pastry chef position at 23 in a 2 star restaurant?
What a talent!
3:10 He crammed it in the PacoJet! Chef Slowik would be proud
Those restaurants make me want to go to school to learn the craft.
'there is no fear of making mistakes:' the key to succes and growt.
I like how he makes it look easy, even though what he is doing is very hard.
soo cool
Impressive!!
And a very friendly and calm, organized guy.
that was satisfying to see their daily life. thank you.
This was really fantastic to watch! Thank you!. This was so much fun to watch!.
That peach tip though… THANK YOU! 🙏
This guy knows what he's doing. He's amazing!!
love to see someone with a passion
What is he putting on the dessert @8:54 after the gelato?
the humblest beast ever to walk a kitchen.
👏👏Proud of You Mac!!! This is awesome!!
This guy is LOCKED IN 🔥🔥🔥
With your tenacity you will soon increase your Michelin Stars! You are spot on and making sure your business thrives and is also safe.
Just great. I loved watching and learning. I like Paco'd for the Pacotizing on the ice cream and sorbets. I like seeing how the deserts start and finish when served.

It always blows my mind just how complex our world is.
Love this guy, need to see more of him
This was an enjoyable learning experience! He’s very knowledgeable and passionate
I can't believe he's not wearing a hat in a two-Michelin-star restaurant! But the food looks incredible-I would love to try it!
adorei ese vídeo. as receitas e doces são minhas favoritas .
Great Chef, absolute professional
everything about this is awesome
The owner is really happy with you being the chef
I really enjoyed this. Please post more like this.
Assistindo esse vídeo me deu um apetite muito grande 😊
I didn’t know I was interested in pastry. I learned so much. Thanks!
Can't believe Chefs and other kitchen staff members are not wearing hats.
Or at least hairnets. Couldn’t believe that one girl with long hair hanging down. Yuk.
omg his vibe... he would be an amazing instructor.
This the type of video that’ll inspire you to change the trajectory of your career.
Amazing pastry chef👍👍👍
