    The Chef was born and raised in the Philippines and Los Angeles, California. He’s only 16 when he graduated high school. He planned of becoming a doctor but an enrollment to a weekend cooking class changed his path to Medical school. Instead, he enrolled in the California School of Culinary Arts.
    Worked under Pierre Hermé in Paris. In 2013 or 14, he was honored the Rising Pastry Chef title and 2015 he’s one of the Top Ten Pastry Chefs in the US. He was featured in Dessert Magazine and So Good Magazine.

      I clicked on this video with the intention to hate on a pretentious chef that made a coconut look fancy on a plate. After watching the process and seeing it wasint just a simple coconut on a plate i can't help but admire this guy and his clear passion for what he does.

Here's what your lack of manhood and lack of intellect didn't get you to understand: a man is fair, and since you're not fair to women, then you are not a man. If you were fair, you would have understood that just like you would want to be treated in a respectful, gracious manner by others, then fairly you should treat others as such too. Btw, your mother is a female, so not sure why you are so touchy about females being treated in a respectful manner, instead of supporting it-- only a weak, perpetrator of domestic abuse (which is a crime; to be an abuser) would have your reaction.

By the end of the movie john wick runs a michelin star restaurant serving the blenderized corpses of his mortal foes.

This whole video is a great example of what passion and a drive to excel can do to a talented person. In this case, without passion, his motivation to create new pastries as complex and at such high level would be lost. So no, you're wrong. Passion is very much the foundational motivator and enabler of his gift. And it's visibly demonstrated by the complexity of this one dish alone.
