Course Description

Aaron Chau was born and raised in that great food city, Hong Kong, and the love of cooking was forged in his early years, where he spent hours cooking alongside his mother and chefs at the family-owned restaurants. His experience also taught him about restaurant operations and the art of making customers happy. 

Aaaron moved to Hawaii to earn his degree in economics at the University of Hawaii at Manoa. During this time, Aaron worked at famous restaurants such as Chez Michel at Eaton Square, the Maile Room at the Kahala Hilton, and Ship's Tavern at the Moana Surfrider. Although he was in charge of the front of the house operations, he shared his Chinese cooking knowledge and exchanged cooking skills/secrets with the chefs with whom he worked.
