BUNCRANA's very own
Michelin TV chef, Kwanghi Chan has recently announced
his role as campaign ambassador for the first year of
Bord Bia’s three year EU and industry funded campaign,
Life is Better with Fruit & Vegetables.
Born in Hong Kong but raised in Inishowen, Kwanghi spent
every day in the aroma of his family’s Buncrana-based
Chinese restaurant. For over 30 years he has worked as a
chef, creating revered dishes and observing the
evolution of trends in Asian cuisine within Ireland and
Southeast Asia. He is the Resident Chef on the Six Clock
Show, creating fast fusion cooking and has an entire
range of his very own sauces. He has also opened his own
Dublin based restaurant Bites by Kwanghi where the
campaign launch took place last month. |

Eoin Sheehan & Kwanghi
Chan launch The Life is Better with Fruit & Vegetables
campaign. |
The Life is Better with
Fruit & Vegetables campaign is largely focused on
encouraging millennials to prepare healthy meals and
live a healthier lifestyle, using sustainably sourced,
fresh, locally grown, in season produce and increase
their fruit & vegetable intake. Kwanghi’s social media
presence of over 20,000 will be hugely beneficial to the
campaign, inspiring foodies across Ireland with a range
of his fruit & vegetable recipes full of delicious
flavours and spices.
Speaking of his new role as a campaign ambassador,
Kwanghi said: “I am absolutely delighted to become an
ambassador for the Life is Better with Fruit &
Vegetables campaign with Bord Bia. Ireland grows a huge
range of fruit and vegetables in its normal season.
Fresh, locally sourced produce contains more nutrients
and has better taste in my dishes. I can’t wait to get
stuck in!”
Kwanghi will be joined by Campaign ambassadors and
Instagram influencers Eoin Sheehan, the Gastrogays and
Rachel Hornibrook who will also partner with Bord Bia to
create recipes and content to inspire millennials. The
Life is Better campaign runs from March 2022 to February
2025.
