Ken Hom has definitely left a mark on our perception of Asian cuisine, so much so that he has ironically been described as “half man, half wok”, due to his Ken Hom woks which are so iconic that  one in seven households in the UK owns them. He is considered one of the world’s greatest authorities on oriental cooking, has received numerous awards for his accomplishments in the culinary arts, has published an array of books and has recently claimed the Hurun Lifetime Achievement award for his services to culinary culture.
