About Lai Yau Tim, Chef at Tim’s Kitchen
My name is Lai Yau Tim. I work as a chef Tim’s Kitchen, opened by me in 2000. Generally, it’s a whole chain of restaurants, and I play with spices, sauces and pans wok in Hong Kong Tim’s.
I was born in Asian city, loved by many Europeans, in Hong Kong. It was in 1949.
To admit, I wasn’t particularly bright at school. What could I do? I found a job in the kitchen before had lent ear to my father. Bright — not bright, and now I own the restaurant with 2 Michelin stars. Always remember that magnificent brain isn’t a guarantee of success.
My journey was quite long — I started my career at age 17 and opened my own restaurant in 33 years. It’s just the job, which seeks to find every person in this world. You know, I could turn off this road not once, but I didn’t. So it’s exactly love.
