Passionate to serve with highest quality

To make a Canadian dream come true, in 1995, Soung (Dean) An made life’s greatest change by moving to Canada. Not only did he change his country but also his career. Canada allowed him to explore his passion of cooking and working in the food service industry. He began his career by looking for places and people who could help him develop his love for Asian and French cuisine. As his understanding of the food and service industry grew, Dean found that the vibrant and diverse cultures of Toronto allowed him to explore and learn the amazing tastes and flavours which have found their way into his ever expanding menu. Always tasting and experimenting with new flavours and techniques, Dean continues to offer new dishes to his clientele. Dean was fortunate to start his career with Toronto’s top rated restaurants, hotels and caters. He was exposed to food at its finest. In 2003, Dean competed in a Culinary Salon in Toronto where he won a gold medal and best presentation for his game dish.
In the 2004 Culinary Olympics in Erfurt Germany, as part of Culinary Team Ontario, Dean’s skill and hard work helped win the team a gold medal as well, the team placed as second best regional team. In 2008, he left his corporate world of cooking as a restaurant chef at Marriott Downtown Eaton Centre to expand his very first establishment restaurant and café in Mississauga called Chef’s Table. By 2012, he opened two other locations to meet higher demand orders from all over the GTA. He has also filled orders for customers as far as British Colombia and south of the boarder. Since the first dish was ever plated, “Never Say Never to Any Body”, has been his motivation to please each and every customer. That motivation and his love of cooking will take Chef’s Table to the next level. More locations and expanded catering will take his vision to all food lovers. Some might say his Canadian dream has come true, but Dean continues to pursue his journey to expand his vision.
