Episode #114: Nicolás Tapia
Nicolás Tapia is the chef and owner of the restaurant Yum Cha in Santiago, Chile. In the interview he talks about how he became interested in tea during a trip to China and during a family style meal where everyone was drinking tea he was reminded of the Chilean concept of once, the evening tea and meal. That’s when the idea was planted in his head to create a restaurant where food and tea could be paired together, combining his cooking experience, Chilean ingredients and the influences from China and elsewhere in Asia where he continues to explore regularly.
