मैंने किसी प्रतियोगिता के लिए खाना नहीं बनाया, मैंने अपने लिए खाना बनाया, मैंने अपनों के लिए खाना बनाया, मैंने अपनी संस्कृति का प्रतिनिधित्व करने के लिए खाना बनाया, मैंने चीनी-अमेरिकी प्रवासियों का प्रतिनिधित्व करने के लिए खाना बनाया। परिस्थितियों के बावजूद मैं जो हासिल कर पाई, उस पर मुझे गर्व था।

I didn't cook for the competition, I cooked for myself, I cooked for my loved ones, I cooked to represent my culture, I cooked to represent Chinese-American immigrants. I was proud of what I was able to accomplish under the conditions.

चार्ल्सटन में बिताए समय से मुझे सबसे ज्यादा प्रेरणा यह मिली कि कैसे हमारी विरासत और इतिहास हमारे खाना पकाने के तरीके को प्रभावित करते हैं। हर व्यंजन ने मेरे दिल को किसी अलग कोने से छुआ, कि खाना पकाने के बाद मैं सचमुच भावुक भी हो गई और साथ ही संतुष्ट भी महसूस कर रहा था।

One thing inspired me the most from the time I spent in Charleston was how much heritage and history are connected to influencing how I cook. Each dish tugged my heart in a different spot that after I finished cooking, I was really emotional and felt fulfilled at the same time.

मुझे जजों की आलोचनाएं वास्तव में बहुत पसंद थीं क्योंकि मैं उससे हमेशा सीख सकती हूँ और खुद को बेहतर बना सकती हूँ। मुझे नहीं लगता कि कोई भी जज डराने वाला है।

I really enjoyed judges critiques because I can always grow and improve from that. I don't think any of the judges are intimidating.

शारीरिक रूप से, टॉप शेफ का यह सीजन बहुत चुनौतीपूर्ण था। हम बीबीक्यू चुनौती के लिए 480 घंटे तक जागे रहे; हम एक चक्रवात के बीच इधर-उधर भागे। मैं बीमार पड़ गई, मुझे बुखार आ गया, मेरी आवाज चली गई, नाक बंद हो गई, लेकिन मैंने मुकाबला करना जारी रखा।

Physically, this season of Top Chef was very challenging. We stayed up for 48 hours for the BBQ challenge; we ran around in a hurricane. I got sick, had a fever, lost my voice, stuffy nose, but kept competing.

स्टेफनी इज़ार्ड। वह अत्यधिक प्रतिभाशाली हैं लेकिन साथ ही बेहद विनम्र भी हैं। और वह पहली महिला टॉप शेफ थीं। मुझे याद है जब उन्होंने मुकाबला किया था, तब मैं उनका हौसला बढ़ा रही थी। उस समय मैंने अपने पाक कला (कुकरी) करियर की शुरुआत ही की थी। उन्हें खाना बनाते देखना बहुत प्रेरणादायक था।

Stephanie Izard. She is extremely talented but super-humble at the same time. And she was the first female Top Chef. I remember cheering her on when she competed. At that time I just started in my culinary career. Watching her cook was very inspiring.
