Kwanghi Chan has many fingers in many pies. He is a Hong Kong born, Donegal man, arriving in Ireland at the young age of 8 and his first experience was cooking in his uncle's Chinese takeaway.
From head chef at Michelin Star “House”, three bricks and mortar premises called “Bites by Kwanghi” to two food trucks of the same name, a spice and other Asian ingredients wholesale business called Chan Chan, recipe and tv appearances, Kwanghi is a busy man. Not just that Kwanghi was the first person to write the spice blend recipe for the infamous “Spice Bag” which has since been copied by McDonalds - An odd accolade.
Kwanghi is a passionate voice for Irish food though and he represents Irish food in Asia on behalf of Bord Bia, with many visits to Hong Kong, promoting quality Irish Artisans to that massive market.
Most recently Kwanghi penned his first cookbook, WOK - Book number 4 in the new exciting Blasta Books series that sees 4 Irish chefs release bitesize books throughout the year. We took the opportunity to grab Kwanghi for a quick chat about his life growing up in Donegal, his fusion of influences from China and Ireland, along with his fusion of experience from fine-dining to street food. Kwanghi is a fascinating man but most of all, he’s just a pleasure to chat to.
Enjoy our chat with Kwanghi Chan.
