Chef Kumi was awesome! Very clear in explaining the ingredients and each step. The food turned out amazing and we'll definitely be adding it to our dinner repertoire!
Chef Kumi was born and raised in Japan and developed an interest in cooking early in life while helping her mother in the kitchen. She attended college in the U.S. and culinary school in Switzerland, though her longing to understand local food cultures has taken her across Asia, where she’s lived and worked for the past 20 years. Having taught at various culinary schools, Chef Kumi has become passionate about sharing her experience and knowledge.
