MasterChef Israel Judge Offers Cleaver-Chopped Focaccia At 2nd S’pore Eatery North Miznon
The newly-opened restaurant is his second concept here after the pita-centric Miznon.
“I need a knife,” declares Eyal Shani, as he grips a ripened tomato in his hand. The Israeli celeb chef and MasterChef Israel judge is at a photoshoot for 8days.sg, where he has proposed squeezing the tomato like a stress ball for dramatic effect. “It will get on my shirt, and that’s when I know this [photo] session must end,” he asserts in his Hebrew-accented English. At our photographer’s cue, chef Eyal crushes his tomato (heirloom, imported from Israel) and pale red pulp splatters onto his crisp white business shirt. Unperturbed, he continues with his day tomato-stained.
