Catch a glimpse of honest and authentic stories of chefs on CreatorsLab’s new series, The Creators

Fuelled by their passion for food and storytelling, the team at CreatorsLab have been cooking up a storm with their latest series, The Creators. As a platform for creatives in the culinary world to tell their stories, CreatorsLab is a Singapore-based company set up to share these stories with the rest of the world.

CEO and Co-Founder of CreatorsLab Jon Lister explains how CreatorsLab intends to be an outlet for culinary creatives to share their stories in a cinematic way. “Forging a career in the F&B industry in Asia is fraught with challenges, and we have heard so many times that chefs have had to push against their parents and wider society’s views of their profession to achieve success,” he continues. He hopes to use this platform to showcase and celebrate Asia’s most inspired culinary talents.
