SAGAN's Head Chefs

SAGAN offers both Japanese and Korean cuisine, each prepared by our two experienced head chefs who are committed to remaining true to tradition and authenticity...

Ms. Kyung Ae Kim is a self-taught Korean chef with more than 25 years of experience, 10 of those years spent perfecting her craft in Korea. Her hands have been described as "magic," because no one can duplicate what she does. She was born to be a chef and has a keen sense for flavors, recipes and how to bring authenticity to her food preparation while at the same time discovering new ways to use traditional ingredients to create a satisfying culinary experience. Her careful selection of all the ingredients that go into SAGAN's food ensures she is brining authenticity and tradition to your dining experience.

Mr. Chin Hwan Chung, the sushi chef, discovered the art of sushi and sashimi preparation nearly 20 years ago while visiting his father in Osaka, Japan. His fascination led him to Tokyo where he trained under some of Japan's finest chefs. His desire is to give more people the opportunity to experience sushi and sashimi prepared with traditional ingredients and techniques. It matters a great deal how the fish is sliced as well as how the sauces and spices are prepared, and he's dedicated to doing it in such a way that reintroduces guests to the traditional - or Kansai - way of preparing sushi and sashimi.
