Connie Sun
Chef, Dumpling Master, Owner of Bite Size Kitchen
As soon as Connie Sun could hold a pair of chopsticks, the young foodie was in the kitchen learning traditional Chinese cooking techniques from her grandparents—both of whom were chefs. Later, after earning a culinary-arts degree and mastering the art of dumpling making, she found her friends constantly begging for these Chinese staples. Realizing she was on to something, Chef Sun opened Bite Size Kitchen, a catering company and cooking school where she brings her spicy and non-spicy dumplings to a wider audience.
