Tony Tan

Chef, Teacher, Lover of Life

My guest on this episode of Three Food Memories is a wokful of wickedness, sass and pure joy!

One of Australia’s most respected chefs, food writers and teachers, he trained at La Varenne in France and Leith’s [PRON: Leeth’s] School of Food and Wine in England. 

He’s owned and cooked at Shakahari in Melbourne and Tatlers Cafe in Sydney, presented The Food Lover’s Guide to Australia, and guested on Anthony Bourdain’s No Reservations where he told Mr Bourdain that he was scared of him because of his frequent dropping of the F-word.

A Renaissance History and Chinese Language graduate he is fluent in several languages - learning French just so he could read French cook books…

His own latest cookbook “Tony Tan’s Asian Cooking Class” I promise will revitalise your connection to the melting pot of Asian cooking.
