Chung Jae Lee
Chung Jae Lee is a Korean born chef living in Australia. Chung Jae went to an elite school for Olympians in Korea for his talent in Judo and when moving to Australia he taught part time at the Adelaide University when studying aviation. He graduated around the time of 9/11 and decided it was time to chose a different career path and with his passion for Korean food he decided to open a modern Korean restaurant down a little lane in Adelaide's Chinatown. This was a small 32 seater and he soon outgrew this and moved to the hustle and bustle of Gouger Street to a substantially larger establishment seating 120. Totally self taught he was very proud when he took out the "Best Chef in SA" and 3 times "Best Asian Restaurant SA". Chung Jae published the first Korean Cookbook in Australia in 2013 named "A Twist on the Traditional" - Korean Cookbook and sold up his restaurant Mapo. He took to the top end to set up Seoul Food and Little Miss Korea and is soon to set up a new establishment in Melbourne CBD.
