Instructor
Chef Gordon Li
I am the Corporate Chef for Y. Hata & Co with over 10 years in the Hawaii food industry. A graduate of the KCC Culinary program, I have spent most of my career working for Roy’s Hawaii from the original Roy’s in Hawaii Kai to Roy’s Beach House in Turtle Bay and Roy’s Goen in Kailua, and a short stint doing modern vegan food. Through my culinary journey my food leans towards Hawaiian Fusion with some modern influences.

After graduation, I spent 6 years at Roy’s, 2 of which was as a Sous Chef at Goen Dining and Bar. After departing Roy’s, I helped open Maze (previously known as Bar Maze) and eventually became Maze’s first Sous Chef. I am currently one of the Corporate Chefs at Y. Hata.
