Growing up as an only child in a single-parent family, Zacharie Ong Kah Wee picked up cooking out of necessity.
"My mom used to go out from morning to night. So her biggest concern was that I have no siblings," he says, chuckling.
And so Ong's mother, who was working at McDonald's, decided that her son had to be equipped with some cooking skills. The first culinary skill she imparted to him was fried rice with lup cheong (Chinese sausage) and egg.
