As restrictions lifted, celebrity chef Martin Yan actively promoted bringing people back to the Bay Area to visit and spends his time lending support to merchants in San Francisco's Chinatown who suffered during the pandemic.
"Our America: Because I Am' shines a light on the nearly 25 million Asian Americans, Native Hawaiians and other Pacific Islanders living in the U.S.
Easily one of the most recognizable chefs in the world, Yan began cooking on television in 1978. His show"Yan Can Cook" has produced 3,500 episodes and has been broadcasted to more than 50 countries. This year, the James Beard Foundation honored him with their prestigious Lifetime Achievement Award, in recognition of a lifetime body of work that had"a positive and long-lasting impact on the way we eat, cook, and/or think about food in America," according to a statement by the foundation."For me, being a young kid I left China when I was very young, and came over here with only about US $20 in my pocket. Nothing - no relatives, no nothing.
Always advocating to make the Bay Area a better place to live, work and visit, Yan spends his time fundraising for public libraries, supporting local restaurants and highlighting the wonderful things the Bay Area has to offer."Let us take care of each other, live harmoniously, peacefully, and be respectful be receptive to each other."
