Meet the Chef
Lucas Sin, Eater Young Guns Class of 2019 and Forbes 30 under 30, opened his first restaurant when he was 16, in an abandoned newspaper factory in his hometown of Hong Kong. Despite spending his Yale undergraduate years in the Cognitive Science and English departments, Lucas spent his weekends running restaurants out of his dorm, known as Y Pop-up. He backpacked and cooked his way through Japan, before settling at Kikunoi Honten in Kyoto. He's also spent time at Modernist Cuisine in Seattle and Michelin-starred kitchens in Hong Kong and New York.
Beyond the bings and noodles at Junzi Kitchen, Lucas also directs the funkier, more indulgent After Hours menu: fried chicken, instant noodles, juicebox cocktails, and the like. His monthly personal project is a no-longer-secret, collaborative tasting menu exploring the narrative of contemporary Chinese cuisine, which we call Chef's Study. During the COVID-19 crisis, he runs the collaborative delivery pop-up known as Distance Dining.
About Junzi Kitchen
junzi kitchen is a modern fast-casual concept that makes authentic and everyday Chinese food accessible. junzi combines homestyle Chinese cooking and a wide range of healthy options to encourage vegetable-forward customization in a menu of rice bowls, mixed noodles, chilled noodles, and salads.
Incubated at Yale Entrepreneurial Institute and first opened in 2015, junzi grew out of a hunger for our childhood staples: northern Chinese food made with healthy, seasonal ingredients. In five years, we've grown junzi to five locations in New Haven, CT near Yale University, Morningside Heights near Columbia University, Greenwich Village near NYU, Bryant Park in Midtown Manhattan, and a delivery-only kitchen that covers downtown Manhattan.
During the current COVID-19 crisis, junzi continue to find new ways to serve the community. The team first promptly introduced the contactless delivery with integrity seal, followed by Family Meal designed for home quarantine. In March, junzi launched the "Distance Dining" pop-up series to encourage creative collaborations and cultural exploration. The team also initiated the Share a Meal program in March, which has now delivered over 6100 meals to healthcare workers and NGOs across NYC and New Haven. junzi most recently introduced Nice Day, a delivery-only program to celebrate the American Chinese cooking people are missing in these difficult times.
