My name is Jan Taube and I am a vegan chef. For many years I have been developing my skills in creating healthy foods that are delicious and sustainable. I have worked with many restaurants creating award-winning menus, bringing the best that plant based foods have to offer.

 

For me though, working like that came with some frustrations. My time was on demand, improving businesses that were not my own. I had to look past the exploits, the false ethics, broken promises and selfish goals until I realised I can do better. This is where the Chiki Monkey began.

 

Since then, and never looking back, I have been designing foods that have the customer and environment at its very core. I cook now with joy and love in my heart, because for me, that is what life and food is about.
