Enjoy the holiday celebration and private networking event at Herb with Chef Patty Neumson. Chef Neumson's culinary journey began when she was 5 years old, in her hometown in Southern Thailand. Her first dish ever was steamed mussels with spices and herbs. By age 10, she was able to cook many traditional Thai dishes such as Pad Thai, Tom Yum and Curries. Even at an early age, she mastered many complex dishes. Even then, it was not her dream to become a chef, rather being a businesswoman just like her mother.
