18-12-2023 (BANGKOK) Lalisa Manobal, widely known as Lisa from the global sensation Blackpink, extended her congratulations to renowned chef Jay Fai for securing her seventh consecutive Michelin star. The celebratory rendezvous unfolded at Jay Fai’s esteemed street food establishment in the Pratu Phee area of Bangkok.
Accompanied by her mother, team members, and executives from Nongshim, Lisa’s presence added a star-studded touch to the festivities. Notably, the wife and daughter of Samsung’s chairman also joined the gathering, elevating the celebration to a notable social event.
Lisa’s attendance at the event went beyond mere congratulations; it served as an opportunity to relish the culinary delights that have earned Jay Fai’s restaurant its prestigious Michelin status. The Thai rapper, singer, and dancer immersed herself in the restaurant’s signature dishes, including the renowned crab omelette and an array of seafood creations celebrated for their exceptional textures and flavors.
In a gracious gesture of appreciation, Jay Fai presented Lisa with a stylish box set, evoking a James Bond aesthetic. The box contained a special edition of Jay Fai’s instant noodles, a collaborative effort with the popular Korean brand Shin Ramyun.
