Success is just desserts for pastry chef

A career based on good taste sees a woman follow her dream to France and back, Li Yingxue reports.

Dai Yuan has proven that she has exquisitely good taste. Gastronomy, rather than astronomy, was written in her stars since childhood. Her journey from information management student to a culinary course in France saw her create her own menu of success.

When she opened her own patisserie in her hometown Tianjin last year, she named it Reims Gare de l'Est.
