Tuesday, 30 September, 2025
Alex Jhun Kim is a Boston-based food content creator who specializes in showcasing mom and pop restaurants through behind-the-scenes videos featuring owners, chefs, and staff. Originally from Southern California, Alex has spent 15 years working across the hospitality industry – from food trucks to white tablecloth fine dining.He's a Le Cordon Bleu culinary school graduate who chose front-of-house work over becoming a chef because he values variety and human connection over repetition. Alex is also a competitive Super Smash Bros Ultimate player who competes nationally and internationally. His food content is inspired by shows like the original Iron Chef and the Japanese cooking show "Dochi," which featured extensive location shooting and storytelling about ingredients and the people behind the food.Alex's one-day Boston food tour:Breakfast: Clear Flour Bread (Brookline) – European-style bakery with excellent pastries and bread. Get a fresh baguette with everything-spiced cream cheese and scallions.Lunch: Pho Viets (Brookline) – Vietnamese restaurant formerly in Super 88 food court. Try the com tam (broken rice plate) with grilled pork chop, but upgrade to their special tomato fried rice.Afternoon Snack: Heytea (Allston) – Tea dessert drink shop. Order the signature mango, coconut, and grapefruit parfait with coconut jelly, mango curd, and saga.Dinner: Mirchi Nation (Brookline) – South Indian restaurant specializing in rice dishes. Must-try: the biryani with slow-cooked basmati rice, saffron, braised chicken leg, and yogurt sauce, plus the Apollo fish (fried fish tossed in yogurt, lemon, and warming spices).Connect with Alex:Instagram: @alexjhunkimDiscounts Get 10% off delicious local farm-fresh food delivered to your door with my link for FarmMatch: https://farmmatch.com/jane Get 15% off high-quality Italian olive oil with code FARMTOFUTURE: https://shop.vignolifood.com/FARMTOFUTURE Get 40% the CircleDNA’s Premium DNA test with code JANEZHANG: https://circledna.com/premium Connect with Jane Z.
