Episode 123: Reflections of a Young Leader with Australia's Young Chef Club Co-Chair Kimberly Tang

On this episode, Ragnar speaks with Chef Kimberly Tang. Born in Singapore and raised in Melbourne, she's been surrounded by diverse food cultures from an early age, and began culinary training at age 17. Kimberly grew her skills in prestigious kitchens including Nobu, Dinner by Heston, Society, and Chef's Table. In 2021, Kimberly was named Nestlé Golden Chef of the Year and represented Australia at the IKA Culinary Olympics in Stuttgart. Last year, Kimberly competed in the San Pellegrino Young Chef Academy Pacific competition, representing Australia with her signature dish, "My Mother's Zi Char," which served as a tribute to her late mother and her Singaporean heritage. When not in the kitchen, Kimberly serves as co-chair of the Young Chef’s Club in Australia and is a member of the World Chefs Without Borders Committee with Worldchefs. Tune in to hear her reflections as a young leader in the industry. World on a Plate is supported by Nestlé Professional and Electrolux Food Foundation.
