Now, Junzi Kitchen has five total locations, and Lucas has channeled his energy into developing additional ventures, which include: 1. Nice Day, a way to order Chinese American classics aimed to combat the decline of mom-and-pop Chinese restaurants in America 2.

Today’s guest on the “Phil with F30” podcast is Lucas Sin – Chef of Junzi Kitchen Forbes List: USA Year: 2020 Category: Food & Drink It was his Asian parents’ dream to send him to the U.S. for higher education so he didn’t end up working in some low paying kitchen. So it’s ironic that this son left Hong Kong, went to Yale, and returned to a Chinese kitchen. Lucas Sin, Chef of Junzi Kitchen, has four locations in NY City and New Haven, Connecticut. Lucas raised over $5-million in funding, including an investment from the co-founder of PF Changs. Lucas’s recipe for success is based on his curiosity about American Chinese cuisine with a dash of cognitive science! In our conversation Lucas shares:  The importance of apprenticing-scrubbing dishes and working your way up. Searching for nuances of Chinese American food. Being quick to abandon things that don’t work or improve it, so it does. Understanding the customer experience. With ingenuity and quick pivoting, Junzi Kitchen stayed open during the pandemic. Lucas organized a system to work with existing programs and invited other restaurants to feed front-line workers with safe and scalable ways that meet hospital standards. He continues feeding workers by taking donations. Consider making a donation. And if you get the opportunity, eat more fried noodles–Junzi’s Chow Mein. It’s really good!   “Under 30 Seconds Round” 1.

Hailing from Hong Kong, food has always been at the center of Lucas Sin's life. Since the age of 16, Sin has been running kitchens and pop ups. Sin even founded a pop up organization, YPOPUP, while attending Yale University. After graduation Chef Sin spearheaded launching Junzi Kitchen, located in New York city. Three years later the concept has grown to 3 locations. Sin's mission with Junzi is to show the America that Northern Chinese food is some of the best food in the world, if not THE best. Show notes… Favorite success quote or mantra: "The only way you're going to learn how to exist and survive in the restaurant industry is to figure out what you want to learn, who you're going to learn it from, and whether they're the best in the world. Then ask them, "Can I learn X form you?" If they so no, asked the second best." In This Episode with Lucas Sin, we discuss: Sin's mission to open Chinese restaurants in order to spread culture and share stories.   How Sin opened his first restaurant at the age of 16 in Hong Kong. When you're getting started, "Just do it!" Start where you can, as small as you can.  The Story behind YPOPUP. The benefits of getting your start with Pop-ups. How if you just focus on doing something great, and accomplish doing something great, people will naturally talk about you. Opening a restaurant in the city you know and love the most. Your odds of becoming successful increasing if you focus on doing one thing better than everyone else. Become a specialist.   If you have no experience, and you want to learn how to run a restaurant, become a franchisee; the franchisor teach you. Why it makes sense to build scalability into your original concept if scaling is ultimately what you want to do. Build big framework into your small business, i.e. replaceable food, HR, Marketing, clear brand.  Having a mission that people with money want to get behind. If your restaurant is serving food that has an ethnicity which differs from those who are serving it (example: Caucasians serving Northern Chinese food) then you'll need to create really solid systems and training to keep that food consistent and authentic. The benefits of hosting collaborative Pop-ups with other chefs and restaurateurs.  How to approach someone, with a larger following than your own, to do a collaborative pop-up event. What data to pay attention to when determining your next location. The strategy and reasoning of opening restaurants on or near college campuses.

Marisa Negro - a pastry chef - works at the 3-star Michelin restaurant (12 hour days are a minimum).  Ever since she could remember, she loved cooking. But when she was 19, she fell in love. And - surprisingly - that story is much different than what happened with cooking. Weirder still, it brings us to something else: the secret to falling in love with learning. On this episode, we cover: - How to fall in love with learning a skill  - Are you born to be good? - The counterintuitive secret to rapid skill acquisition - How did Marisa first fall in love? And more, all on this episode.    The Facts Moonwalk is produced and hosted by Mohnish Soundararajan. It's co-hosted by Kevin Sanji, and this episode was edited by Jarrod Sport, Kevin Sanji, and Justine Brumm. Music is by Podington Bear and Eter Dub. Special thanks to Marisa, Airis and Lucas.

"I don't know how to describe it...it was a traumatic experience" - Airis Johnson There's a church, right in the culinary underbelly, that no one knows about. It makes you work faster, work easier, and work better. It has no God, and it's followers wear chef whites, dice onions, and produce culinary experiences that would you make your grandfather's face explode right off.  We wanted to know more - so, we got a few chefs who've worked at Michelin star restaurants to talk:  - What is Mise en Place?  - What are the basics of organization? - How do you prep your day-to-day? - When you have no time, everything's on fire, and you have no idea what to do - what do you do?  And more all on this episode.    The Facts Moonwalk is produced and hosted by Mohnish Soundararajan. It's co-hosted by Kevin Sanji, and this episode was edited by Jarrod Sport and Justine Brumm. Music is by Podington Bear.  Feedback is by Justine Brumm.
