Brian was born in Gwangju, South Korea \u201cThe Hometown of Korean food\u201d, where every family creates restaurant-quality food in their homes. Brian was lucky enough to have a dad who loved cooking as a hobby. Naturally, Brian was exposed to cooking, often helping him prepping meals as a child. The way raw ingredients transforms to different dishes always fascinated him and this lead to where he is today. Having achieved a bachelor degree in architectural engineering but was not happy to work as an architect, Brian followed his passion and curiosity back to the kitchen. Studied culinary arts at CPIT in Christchurch in 2004 and has worked with reputable restaurants and hotels, including The French caf\u00e9, The George Hotel and Sofitel, among others. Brian will be a great addition to our White + Wong’s Newmarket team.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
