Chef Alvin Yu

Personal Chef In Chicago

Originally from San Francisco, California, Chef Alvin Yu has spent a large portion of his life in the kitchen. Growing up in a large family, he was amazed at how his aunts and uncles could produce plentiful amounts of high-quality food for twenty to thirty people in a few hours. At an early age, he found himself assisting in the kitchens of his father’s Cantonese banquet-style restaurants.

These experiences inspired Chef Yu to pursue learning everything there was to know about the culinary arts. In college he continued to develop his cooking prowess and began to delight his friends with lavish affairs. In 2005, responding to the urging of well-fed friends and family members freshly aglow with their experience of his unifying cuisine, he started Fyusion Dining*. Chef Yu eventually developed a vision of dining that culminates in a feast for the senses - exquisite décor, expertly prepared cuisine, and a passion for encouraging patrons to explore the limitless diversity of the culinary world.

His passion, flair, and dexterity in the culinary arts invite diners throughout Chicago to slow down and enjoy each other’s company, thereby revisiting the dining experience. Chef Yu is a premier member of the United States Personal Chef Association.

For me, cooking is...

a passion and a lifestyle

I learned to cook at...

the restaurants of traditional masters all over California

A cooking secret...

Love, passion, and a desire to serve. I cook for my clients as if they are my family

Chef Yu was fantastic. After soliciting my input, he created a menu that was great for the occasion. He arrived early, and once introductions were made, he immediately went to work. This was an intimate dinner for two, and he found exactly the right balance of interaction and allowing us privacy. He set up everything so that we felt like we were having a dining out experience in the comfort of our home. The dishes he created were beautifully presented and delicious, and he explained each course as he served. We took a couple of breaks during the meal, and with each one he encouraged us to take our time. Almost as soon as the meal was finished, the kitchen was spotless (I actually think it looked better than before he arrived!). There was essentially an entire meal for two left over, which he packed up for us to enjoy the following day. Overall an amazing experience, and I would book him again without a second thought. Could not recommend him enough. Book him now - you won't be sorry!

What an incredible evening with Chef Alvin and his team! I had a 30th birthday party of 8 people and Chef Alvin was beyond accommodating for last minutes additions and working with peoples dietary restrictions. The food and service was 10000/10! They were kind, professional, engaging and fun to have around! They were on time and cleaned up after which was unnecessary and so appreciated! Everyone at the party wanted to work with Chef Alvin and his team in the future. Thank you for such an incredible evening!
