We received a press e-mail from Lotus, informing us that they are hosting a new guest chef, Bobby Chainarong  “straight in from Phuket” who will be bringing with him “his impressive pedigree and fresh ingredients” this summer.  Ignorant as charged, we had no idea who Bobby Chainarong was, and a quick Google search gave us nothing, except there seems to be a police colonel named Samarn Chainarong in Phuket who appears to rather enjoy giving out quotes to newspapers. Our friendly PR contact informed us that her agency is no longer representing Lotus and she had no idea who might be. We admit it, our curiosity has been duly aroused and now we’re going to have to go and sample Chef Bobby’s salad of banana blossom with chicken or shallots with peanut dressing and tempura of Vietnamese black pepper soft shell crab to see what this Chef Bobby business is all about. 37-43 Pottinger St., Soho, 2543-6290.
