As the son of one of Philippines’ catering pioneer – Steve Tamayo, Chef Chris began exploring the kitchen at the age of 5, assisting his parents as they prepared for big events.

Manifesting Big Goals. Right before the pandemic, Chris was admitted to the prestigious Culinary Institute of America where he honed his skills in culinary arts. When he returned in 2020, he found the opportunity to test the market by creating meals, selling them online and donating 100% of the proceeds to charities including computer donation to School for the Deaf and Rise Against Hunger – Philippines.
