Chef Justin Lee, creative founder of JL Dessert Bar (Seoul, Korea), dedicates all the Frozen Art Chef lovers the CARBONARA recipe, one of his most recent blockbusters.
Chef Lee worked at Italian restaurants for more than 10 years and decided to express his creativity and his philosophy “to include all the ingredients on a dessert plate” by realising this innovative dessert plate.
