Chef Danny Chu worked as a foreign currency trader in Singapore before he left for Japan to follow his passion and learn more about shojin ryori, Japanese Zen cuisine. With sheer hard work and unwavering determination, Chef Danny mastered traditional Zen temple cooking and became the first shojin ryori chef in Singapore.

He ran the popular Enso Kitchen in Singapore for several years, delighting both vegetarians and non-vegetarians alike with his creative dishes, and garnering rave reviews from the media, including Wine & Dine, Travel+Leisure, BBC Good Food, Appetite, The Peak, Business Times, and Channel News Asia.

Today, Chef Danny is based in Taiwan where he shares the art of shojin ryori through cooking demonstrations and classes. He has also established Heliosphere, a holistic centre, to broaden his spiritual pursuits.
