Our Staff

Our amazing staff here at Chinese Take-In are highly trained and specialized asian chefs. We feel this is important because all of our recipes that we offer contain varieties of different asian flavors from mixed asian cultures. Having expert chefs who specialize in asian cuisine allows our students to learn which flavors clash and which do not, and ultimately teaches them how to create a perfect meal. Furthermore, our staff are experts in kitchen-safety, and are more than happy to spread the love of the kitchen to all those who want it!
