Jeremy Chan is the chef and co-owner of Ikoyi, a two-Michelin-starred restaurant in London inspired by West African flavors and British micro-seasonality, which he opened in 2017 with childhood friend Iré Hassan-Odukale. Born in 1987 in Hong Kong to a Chinese father and Canadian mother, he grew up nomadically across Canada, the UK, US, and Hong Kong before studying Literature and Philosophy at Princeton University and working in finance.
