Born and raised in Chicago, Chef David Wang brings more than 15 years of experience to his role at Toasted Hospitality. His love of food and cooking stems from his family and heritage, where he developed a passion for cooking at a young age. David kickstarted his hospitality career after a brief stint at a four-year college, when he realized he could turn his passion for cooking into a career and enrolled at Kendall College. He graduated in 2006 with a degree in culinary arts and has since worked in the kitchens of some of the city’s most beloved restaurants like Mercat a la Planxa, Acadia and Boleo. David brings a unique creativity to our hospitality group infusing global flavors into traditional dishes to give them more of a modern flare. David lives in the River West neighborhood of Chicago and in his spare time, enjoys trying new restaurants and spending time with his wife and son.
