André Chiang is the only Chinese-born chef listed in the World's Best 50 Restaurants.

Courtesy NetflixHis Netflix film, "André and His Olive Tree," is the top-grossing documentary in Taiwan for 2021.At Restaurant André in Singapore, nothing was left to chance, and nothing was out of place.

"That day was perfect, even the weather was perfect," he went on, "so I called my wife and said, 'This is it.'"It's difficult to overstate Chiang's impact on the culinary world. In 2008, he moved to Singapore to open Jaan par André at Swisshotel The Stamford. Tables sold out and the restaurant drew rave reviews, which, Chiang said, encouraged him to open his own restaurant: "We were at the maximum of what we could deliver at Jaan par André, and if we expected to go higher in quality, experience, and detail, Restaurant André was the right thing to do.

"It was the same feeling as what people experienced during the pandemic. It's not the big house, fancy cars, or travel that was important - it was your family, friends, and health," added Chiang. Media analyst Teresa Phillips, CEO of global technology and data company Spherex, told Insider it's not hard to see why "André And The Olive Tree" became a sensation in Taiwan.
