“I am a fourth-generation chef and grew up spending a lot of time in Chinese kitchens. Whether is was in a restaurant setting or at home with my grandmother my life seemed to always revolve around food. It was inescapable no matter how hard I tried to do something else with my life.” - Chef Chris. Thank you ! Click link in bio to read the full article!
