Meet Chef Jan Hill
Hi, I’m Chef Jan Hill! I am a first-generation immigrant from Laos. I grew up and settled in the Southern California area before moving to Atlanta in July of 2018.
My culinary career started in fine dining at the one Michelin star rated Ortolan in Los Angeles. Since then, I have worked in many different areas of the culinary world ranging from teaching kids’ cooking classes to working in the culinary department of University of Southern California to many famed and well-known resorts in the Palm Springs area. Since becoming a Georgian I have also created food for scenes in Black Lightning and The Resident.
I believe cooking and food is what every culture has in common. We all need to eat to survive, but food itself brings families and friends across cultures together. I live to eat and cook amazing food; I do not eat and cook amazing food to live.
