Michael is deeply involved in Houston’s food scene — known as much for his eye behind the camera as his appetite at the table. A respected videographer and photographer, he’s collaborated with chefs all over town while also building a reputation as that friend every chef wants to cook for — a true foodie through and through.

Beyond documenting the stories of others, Michael is also a home cook with a deep love for his Cantonese heritage. Cooking puts him at peace, and he finds real joy in watching a dish come together. For one day only, he’s stepping out from behind the lens and into the kitchen, sharing the flavors he grew up with in a pop-up that’s both personal and delicious.
