Welcome to PekinChef

Where Tradition Meets Modern Cuisine

Our Story

Welcome to PekinChef, where the rich traditions of Peking cuisine come alive in the modern world. Our journey began with a simple yet powerful vision: to bridge the gap between authentic Chinese cooking and contemporary food enthusiasts. Founded by Anya Shao, PekinChef has evolved from a passionate hobby into a vibrant community of food lovers, home cooks, and culinary adventurers.

The inspiration for PekinChef sparked from countless evenings spent in my grandmother's kitchen in Beijing, where the art of traditional cooking was passed down through generations. Those precious moments, filled with the sizzle of woks and the aromatic blend of spices, laid the foundation for what would become a lifelong dedication to preserving and sharing these culinary treasures.

Our Mission

At PekinChef, we believe that food is more than just sustenance – it's a story, a tradition, and a bridge between cultures. Our mission is to demystify the art of Peking cuisine while maintaining its authenticity. We strive to create a space where both beginners and experienced cooks can explore, learn, and master the techniques that make Chinese cooking truly special.
