How Chanthy Yen Became the Canadian Prime Minister’s Personal Chef | Eater Montreal

"I was enlisted to serve as the personal chef at Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s Rideau Cottage residence, a role that has me preparing breakfast, lunch, and dinner for him and his family; I won’t divulge how Trudeau takes his eggs or coffee, but I can confirm my Cambodian heritage has found its way into the dishes I bring to the Trudeau dinner table. I first got the call on September 21, 2021 and by December 13 I was reporting for duty, and the job has felt like a meaningful way to give back to Canada — especially as a queer, BIPOC chef." - Valerie Silva
