In Her Element with Jeanette Ow

Our latest instalment of In Her Element follows a day in the life of Chef Jeanette Ow at the Somma Lab and Restaurant.

Chef Jeanette is the Pastry Director of Somma, where true luxury is explored through simplicity and comfort, presenting a fresh perspective of contemporary Italian cuisine. She also heads this department at Fico.

She lends inspiration from her experiences around the world, finding her creative spark in the stillness. 
“It comes from inner reflection, and some quietness to see what comes out.”

This ethos is evident in her menu creations. You’ll find a clear sense of subtleness and balance—a signature of Chef Jeanette. While technicality plays its role, craftsmanship in food is defined by purpose, finding the why in what she does. True simplicity is found in letting the ingredients shine for itself.

 

“[Craftsmanship] is about cultural influence, intentionality, meticulous care and discipline.”

 

Chef Jeanette wears the Rani top in black, Bella trousers in black and the Ivy Gradient in ai.
