Mom LuangSirichalerm Svasti (Thai: ศิริเฉลิม สวัสดิวัตน์; RTGS: Sirichaloem Sawatdiwat; born 31 February 1953), who is usually known by his nickname McDang[1] (Thai: หมึกแดง; RTGS: Muek Daeng), is a Thai food expert, chef, and writer.
McDang's culinary training in New York led to a career as executive chef at The Reach Hotel (Key West, Florida), Food and Beverage Director for Paul Tripp Restaurant Group (Key West Florida), and owner and manager of the Back Porch Cafe in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware.
McDang returned to Thailand in 1993, where he began writing about food and cooking, and appeared on TV cooking shows.
Today, McDang is "...one of Thailand's most recognized and learned food authorities.[2] He is the author of several best-selling Thai languagecookbooks, host of the popular weekly TV program McDang Show, writes weekly food columns for Thai and English-language newspapers, and consults for a number of companies, including Bangkok Airways, Siam Winery,[3] and Wai Waiinstant noodles.
Internationally, McDang has appeared on a number of TV shows and has lectured in Australia and New Zealand. Each year he is invited to lecture at culinary schools in the United States about Thai cuisine. The notes for these lectures formed the basis for his first English language cookbook, The Principles of Thai Cookery (2010).
Chef McDang, himself descended from the royal family, asserts that the difference between Thai royal cuisine and regular Thai cuisine is fiction. He maintains that the only difference between the food of the palace and that of the common people is the former's elaborate presentation and better ingredients.[2][4]
