I am a professional chef working at a Michelin Starred restaurant in Las Vegas. I have 16 years of experience, 16 years of catering service. You would expect an elevated private, customized, fine dining experience. Started my journey at a fine dining steakhouse in Taipei, Taiwan. That’s 2008. Immigrated to U.S. in 2016. It was hard to get a fine dining kitchen position at that point because no one recognized my resume from Taiwan. So I start over from dishwasher then prep cook, and finally got a line cook position. Half of my culinary experience are in Los Angeles. I worked at Spago, Angler those fine dining restaurants and learned a lot. Currently I work as executive sous chef in French bistro.

For me, cooking is...

Cooking is art. It’s part of my life. It’s something i can find the peace. And it’s a perfect bridge between my family and me!

I learned to cook at...

I never went to culinary school. All my cooking techniques learned from my work. From fine dining steak house in Taiwan to Bouchon in Vegas.

A cooking secret...

Always season with love. A lot!

I wanted to have a nice experience for my parents’ anniversary since my dad has health issues which makes going out a struggle at times. Chef James is amazing! From reading his profile to the messaging, he has provided an experience that shares his value for connecting with people through his love of cooking. Creating a special memory for my parents was exceptional with the help of Chef James. To help give a frame of reference, my parents and I live in different states. Chef James communicates well with what to expect and ensures a wonderful experience. My parents called immediately afterward to share how wonderful the meal was and quoting from what they said “this was the best meal they have ever eaten.” They shared how he was prompt in coming to the house on time, preparing a special meal, and creating a memory that my parents will be able to enjoy! We will definitely be hiring him for all events in the future! He comes HIGHLY recommended! You cannot meet nicer people than Chef James and his lovely wife!
