Chefs Katianna and John Hong: a modern-day culinary love story.
Katianna and John are the Chefs/Partners of Yangban; a Modern-Korean American Restaurant in the heart of Downtown L.A.’s Arts District. They showcase an autobiographical experience that celebrates their respective backgrounds.
Since opening, Yangban has earned accolades such as the coveted spot in Bon Appetit's “Top 10 Best New Restaurants in America,” Condé Nast Traveler's “Best New Restaurants in the World,” and Esquire's “Best New Restaurants in America,” and "Chef(s) of the Year.”
In this episode, we learn how their respective journeys through some of the finest Michelin-starred restaurants in the country - where they honed their craft - paved the way for the innovative flavors and techniques that grace Yangban's menu today.
Katianna and John’s influence goes beyond the kitchen. They are committed champions of their communities, extending their support to causes like Regarding Her, the Skirball Cultural Center, No Us Without You, and more. Enjoy this episode as we go Beyond the Plate… with Chefs Katianna and John Hong.
