We are pleased to welcome acclaimed Pastry Chef Eunji Lee for a special weekend collaboration as part of the Annual RPM Garden Party. This exclusive collaboration, taking place Saturday, August 29th and Sunday, August 30th, will feature a selection of pastries created by Chef Lee at RPM Bakehouse, with all proceeds being donated to Gillan’s Place.
Born in South Korea, Chef Eunji Lee moved to France in 2006 to pursue her passion for pastry. She trained at the Institut National de la Boulangerie Pâtisserie in Rouen and Ecole Ferrandi in Paris before honing her craft at renowned establishments including Ze Kitchen Galerie and three-Michelin-starred Le Meurice. In 2016, she became Executive Pastry Chef of two-Michelin-starred Jungsik in New York, where she blended classical French techniques with Korean ingredients, before opening her own pastry boutique, Lysée, in Manhattan’s Flatiron District in 2022. Since then, Chef Lee has earned international acclaim, including recognition as Food & Wine’s Best New Chef of 2023, La Liste’s Pastry Talent of the Year, and World’s 50 Best North America’s Best Pastry Chef in 2026.
We are honoured to host Chef Lee at RPM Bakehouse and look forward to sharing this exceptional collaboration with our guests while supporting an important cause within our local community.
