Pang Kok Keong

Pang Kok Keong (born 1975) is a chef in Singapore. He was the chef-owner of Antoinette (closed down circa 2020), a home-grown Parisian-style pâtisserie, restaurant and salon du thé (French for the tea house) that features French cuisine and pastries. The dishes offered are made from a combination of traditional French techniques and modern cooking methods. He is also the owner of "Sugar Daddy Group" while Antoinette was running. He now runs his new venture SuperCurry and has a store front for Hakka noodles.

Early life and education Pang's parents are fishball noodles hawkers who owned a stall in Jurong. He grew up helping his mother in the kitchen. As a teenager, Pang worked part-time jobs in coffee shops and restaurants to earn pocket money.

He set up Pang's Hakka Delights in 2018 as a way to revisit his Hakka roots. Pang cited leek kueh as a childhood dish made by his mother, who learned the recipe from her grandmother. When learning to make the dish, Pang mentioned that he had to learn it from memory, tasting the dish as he goes.

Pang shared that it was initially difficult to convince his colleagues to accept his passion for making Hakka food, as it was a labour-intensive process. These competitions were an outlet for his creativity. 2018 Shatec Industry Excellence (SHINE) Awards Outstanding Alumni Award (Pastry)
