After spending over 3 ½ years as Head Chef at the Michelin starred Cliff House Hotel in Ardmore under Dutch star chef Martjin Kajutier, in 2015 he stormed onto the scene in Dublin with Soder+Ko, a hip collaboration between a Scandi bar and Kwanghi’s fine fusion cooking.
In 2016 he started ChanChan, making products that supply into food services and selling in supermarkets and selected award-winning artisan food stores across Ireland.
His latest restaurant concept is Bites by Kwanghi, which began as a food truck and now has a home in the Docklands in Dublin.
