We cooked up a little storm on ABC7 Chicago’s Cooking Up a Storm this morning! 🌪️🍞
Huge thanks to the ABC 7 Chicago team for having us—no umbrellas needed, just snacks.
Chef Ryan Cai from Ken Kee showed how we make our famous Ovaltine toast, a classic treat from Hong Kong afternoon tea that’s been winning hearts for hundreds of years.
At Ken Kee, afternoon tea isn’t just tea…it’s snacks, sips, and “just one more bite.” 🫖🥪
