Learn the Art of Cooking at the Chef Martin Yan Culinary Arts Center in Shenzhen, China

San Mateo, California


Learn from the very best!

Chef Martin Yan's Culinary Arts Center opens in China spearheaded by pioneer TV Chef Martin Yan, host of the Emmy award winning Yan Can Cook shows airing on PBS-TV and in more than 70 countries worldwide including China.

Chef Martin Yan has educated millions of television viewers worldwide for more than 20 years about Chinese and Pan-Asian cuisine and now is the first to bring quality, intensive, professional culinary courses to China, with western management skills and a high-standard accreditation and chef assessment program to help Chinese chefs, as well as China's food and restaurant industry, meet world standards.

A perfect complement to the Chinese Chef training, Chef Martin Yans group at Yan Can Cook, Inc. is working with China Travel Service (CTS) to create a forum for exciting cultural and culinary exchange to allow chefs from all corners of the world to join together at the new CHEF MARTIN YAN'S CULINARY ARTS CENTER) to share a common interest in learning the essentials of Chinese and Pan-Asian cuisine.

Western professional chefs and amateur chefs can now travel to the center in Shenzhen, China near Hong Kong to attend expert classes in Chinese and Pan-Asian cuisine, augmented by first-class culinary tours to Chinas best loved destinations, including Beijing, Xian, Sichuan, Hong Kong, Guilin, and Shenzhen.

The curriculum ranges from intensive, short-term, professional chef programs to food preparation, as well as basic cooking lessons designed for the amateur chef.

Known as The China Experts, China Travel Service has a history of providing excellent and informative cultural tours. Established in Shanghai in 1928, now headquartered in Hong Kong, CTS is the oldest and largest tour operator serving mainland China and Hong Kong. The CTS network includes more than 300 offices throughout China, 40 offices in Hong Kong and 20 overseas offices in 15 countries.

Martin Yans groundbreaking TV programs on Chinese cooking made him one of the most recognized Asian chefs in the world. Born in the southern Chinese city of Guangzhou (Canton), his own first cooking lessons, ones he still considers his most influential, took place in his childhood kitchen, as he helped his talented mother create delicious dishes from market-fresh ingredients.

Still in his teens, he apprenticed with a chef in Hong Kong and mastered the art of Chinese cooking. He pursued further training in Canada, receiving formal certification as a Master Chinese Chef, followed by a graduate degree in food science from the University of California at Davis in the US. He is the author of 26 cookbooks, including Martin Yans Feast: The Best of Yan Can Cook, Chinese Cooking for Dummies, and Martin Yan’s Asian Favorites.

Martin cooks and eats with engaging gusto, and he is certainly the premier exponent of Chinese cuisine. He has been researching this ancient art for years, he knows both its classical and modern versions, and equally important, he knows how to teach.
