A self-described 'accidental chef', Trevor Lui spent over 20 years producing thousands of event experiences and as an executive for major entertainment venues and has helped co-create and develop some of Toronto's foremost food brands and restaurants.

Trevor's cookbook, Double Happiness offers feel-good recipes and food stories, shares his journey as a first-generation Canadian, and the experiences that led to him becoming an innovative storyteller through food that will inspire you with each bite and sip.

Trevor will be in conversation with Stephanie Lui-Valentim, marketing guru, relationship cultivator and founder of a purpose-driven talent management agency focused on BIPOC experts in the food & drink industry to discuss the role of Chinese food in North American then and now and how we are all connected through our dining experiences.
