Lingo John Quichocho - Sous Chef
Lingo was born in Bremerton, Washington and raised on the island of Guam. Being raised in Guam he was surrounded by the exotic Asian environment which created an interest in food and culture.
Then, he moved to the United States to pursue his love in food and culture by attending the National Culinary Baking School in San Diego, California. There he mastered his cooking techniques that led him to his first fusion venture, Roy’s La Jolla.
At Roy’s, he was exposed to Hawaiian Fusion cuisine and fine dining which reaffirmed his love for food, culture, and cooking. In no time at all, he mastered every station of the kitchen and was promoted to Sous Chef. Before officially becoming a Sous Chef, he trained under Isaac Bancaco at Roy’s Los Angeles. Shortly after, he took a position as Sous Chef at Roy’s Rancho Mirage. Intrigued by Isaac culinary talent and the Onyx project he moved out east to help bring World Fusion cuisine to Springfield, Massachusetts. |
