- (Gunnarolla) I'm so excited to talk to you, Chef Nuit.
I feel like like I've enjoyed your food for years.
You're one of the most beloved chefs in the city.
- (Nuit) Oh thank you.
- Why do you think it is that people love Thai food?
- Thai food very flavorful.
You have a bite of like a sweet, salty, sour,
spicy, and umami, everything, it's very complex.
- So you've been involved in a few different restaurants
in the city, can you tell me about Kiin?
- Kiin is Royal cuisine inspired.
The Royal cuisine, it's almost extinct in Thailand
because of most of the everyday eating,
we eat like street style, we eat food
that we can get it from our backyard or like a local market.
Royal cuisine style, it's very, very special.
They choose from the best ingredients
and also the technique,
cooking for a Royal cuisine style, very delicate.
We put our thought and care into
how they gonna make it beautiful on the table.
Some fruits or vegetables we carve
into a beautiful flower like,
or even like leaves and everything.
- We have some guests today that we'll be serving.
What kind of impression do you want to make on them?
- I want to make them feel like very special, of course.
(oohing)
I want them to love the food,
because the flavor that me and my team,
we make it very, very authentic, very traditional.
- Cheers!
- Glad to see you.
- (Gunnarolla) Nice to meet you.
Have you ever had a meal like this before?
- Not so often, you know.
We work and then we eat easy food, fast food,
for Thai on the street, yeah.
- People in Canada, we love Thai food.
- Thai food is like a Thai girl.
- We are different, we are diversity,
so many things going on.
- It's very spicy.
- You like spicy?
- Yeah, like me!
(laughs)
- Now between the three of you, who's the best chef?
- Oh, I think, not chef, no, nobody is.
- We are not chef.
- That's not your talent?
- Everyone is eater.
(laughing)
- Well you're good at so many different things.
Right, you have to sing,
you have to dance, costume designer.
Let's talk about why you decided to do drag.
- Because I love to dance.
But I want everyone look at me, so happy,
when I perform, yeah.
- I was in the theater.
I worked in a lady boy cabaret show,
like regular cabaret show.
And then I got used to it, I wanted something new.
And I got off the place to develop myself,
to produce my own show and perform my own show.
So I become a drag queen.
- I love art, and I study about, but for me art.
I want to teach everyone, inspire by yourself.
- For me, she is a very good teacher,
and she very inspiring people by being herself.
You know, she mostly a shy person, and she go through that,
and that's inspired me too, and inspire other people.
- (Gunnarolla) Do you get nervous
before you have to perform?
- (Kana Warrior) Oo sure, yeah.
- (Angele) Nervous means we care.
- Do you find that the drag culture in Thailand
is different from the rest of the world?
- You know, honestly before I was, think that,
you know, it was different.
By the look and the attitude.
But I think we have same passion
to set ourself free, to let people see, to entertain them,
and that is the thing that inspire people.
- But I have to say I think the drag queens
on Drag Race Thailand is like next level.
- You know, we are crazy.
(laughs)
- If you could redo the competition,
is there anything you would do differently?
- No.
- Same thing.
- We hope perfect, but nobody is perfect.
- Yeah yeah, everything we do,
make us now, make us a better person.
- And you're friends, so is it weird
to compete with each other?
- Yes, of course.
(laughs)
- Not friend.
- You're not friends?
(laughs)
- Where do you like to go in Thailand.
Where do you like to just hang out?
- You know, we are entertaining like in the bar,
like at nightclubs, so we don't hang out.
- (Gunnarolla) You don't?
- I mean, we work and then hang out at the same time.
But I prefer like the rest of the time,
I want to go to the beach and nature.
- Okay, you like that, and Thailand has beautiful beaches.
- It's amazing, Thailand.
You can come to see us in Stranger Bar and Maggie Choo's
and I can go everywhere with you if you want.
- I would love that.
(laughs)
Is there anywhere you want to go you haven't been yet?
- I want to go to the sea, I like to dive.
Because I'm up in the north, you know.
I live up in the mountains, so I want to see,
like a mermaid, you know.
