Sawaddee Ka, and thank you for stopping by! If you're here, I am guessing that you've found my videos to be of value to you in some way. You might be looking for some more content, or perhaps you're just here because you want to support what I do, or both. Whatever the reason, I thank you in advance for being here! Here's a little more info on who I am and what I do. What do I do?&nbsp;I make cooking videos on YouTube, and my goal is to make them educational as well as fun to watch. I believe in teaching people not just the recipes, but also a deeper understanding of cooking principles so that on top of learning new dishes, you also become a better cook. I was born and raised in Thailand, and I currently live in Vancouver, Canada. I used to work in the restaurant industry as a chef, but I discovered that what actually gave me most fulfilment was the ability to inspire and enable others to experience the joy of cooking. So I started my&nbsp;<a href="http://youtube.com/pailinskitchen" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">YouTube Channel</a> which currently has 2 shows: Hot Thai Kitchen,&nbsp;my main show which aims to demystify Thai cuisine, and Pai's Kitchen&nbsp;my second show where I share recipes from around the world.&nbsp; The team: The "team" is very small - my big brother Art and my long-time friend Adam. My brother edits all of my videos and also helps with planning and scripting of each video. Adam is what we joking call the "Chief Executive Minion." He helps out in many different areas of HTK and is always on set with me for every shoot. As for me, I do everything else! Test recipes, test them again, and again, to make sure they work and are delicious. I plan the videos, write the script, direct the shoot, take the photos, make the website posts, and post on social media. My promise to my Patreon members: The "rewards" I offer on Patreon is my way to concretely thank you for your kind support. But in addition to that, I can promise you one thing: I will never put out recipes I don't genuinely think are delicious and worth making. There are many recipes that have been tested but never made it to a video because I don't think they're up to my standard. I would never put out a video just to "fill the week" or just because it has been requested. I would never put up a recipe I wouldn't make for my own guests when they come over. Everything I post, including my non-cooking videos, I post because I think it will be of value to you in some way. That is my promise to you.&nbsp; &nbsp; Finally, thank you. Seriously, THANK YOU. On behalf of all content creators who work hard to put their work out there for the world to consume at no charge, people like you mean a lot to us. Here are some videos that give you an insight into my work process :) The HTK "Process"These videos are a bit outdated because we have since moved to a different set and have a slightly different process now, but this is Adam's apartment where I spent years making videos, and probably you've seen many videos made in this set! <iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/V1wM5RJyiy8" allowfullscreen="true" frameborder="0"></iframe>Live Tour of the Set!&nbsp;<iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/XxUnlTdXv9c" allowfullscreen="true" frameborder="0"></iframe>
