Kwoklyn Wan

TV chef & presenter

Kwoklyn Wan is a TV chef, presenter, best-selling cookbook author and all-round Chinese food expert.

Raised in his family’s Cantonese restaurants in Leicester, he has been around Chinese food all his life and developed a deep enjoyment for cooking. He poured his unwavering love of food into perfecting classic Chinese and East Asian recipes which are showcased in a series of best-selling cookery books. His debut, Chinese Takeaway Book, was released in 2019, and has gone on to be sold worldwide in multiple languages. Another six books have since joined the series. 

Regular TV appearances include ITV This Morning, Channel 4 and his own Chinese Takeaway Kitchen show on Amazon.

In addition to the books and TV appearances, Kwoklyn also presents and demos at many food festivals around the country where he shares his passion for making Chinese & East Asian food accessible for all, none more so than his wife Jo who suffers with Coeliac disease as well as various other food intolerances. Very little is off the table though thanks to Kwoklyn’s understanding of how to cook their favourite dishes whilst safely avoiding or substituting the offending ingredients.
