EP. 58: H. Woo Lee, how do you cook fine dining meals and produce food content?
H. Woo Lee is a rising food content creator and founder of his underground fine-dining supper-club, Maru Los Angeles. He graduated from the University of Southern California in May 2019, and currently works for celebrity wedding planner, Kevin Lee. In the summer of 2017, H-Woo taught himself how to cook, and this passion has only escalated ever since. During his senior year, he hosted weekly dinners out of his apartment for guests. In 2019, he officially founded Maru Los Angeles, which focused on Korean-Italian fine dining and the social experience of dining. In December 2020, H. Woo began food content creation on TikTok, where has over 600k followers. His high-intensity, quick-clip cooking videos showcase his culinary skills and personality, and he looks forward to expanding towards other digital media platforms and re-opening his supper-club after COVID.
In this episode of How Do You Do? Podcast, Ben asks H. Woo how he taught himself how to cook fine dining meals, how a roommate's reaction to his pomodoro pasta inspired H. Woo to start supper club Maru Los Angeles, how he injects his personality into his food content, and more.
