History

The first Eighteen Chefs outlet was opened in 2007, at Eastpoint Mall, by the ex-offender and former drug addict Benny Se Teo.[3][4]

While on an internship with Jamie Oliver, he heard about the Fifteen Foundation. He started Eighteen Chefs along similar lines,[5] and is now the director of the company in 2015.
