I've been watching your shows since the 80's, my friend. Remember, if Yan can cook, so can you!

I have watched Martin Yan my entire life. I just love him and he was my first inspiration to be a chef and want to explore the world

[@christopherarmstrong2710]

Awesome story! I remember growing up with Martin on TV and being so impressed with how enthusiastic / confident he was - both as a chef and as a showman / TV personality. His show trumped almost all of the other cooking shows on TV at the time, which were quite boring in comparison. He deserves all of his success, and is a true American treasure!

Julia Child, Rick Bayless, Martin Yan... watch them, learn from them, and you will never starve, and you will gain such an understanding of the cuisines they specialise in.
