A native of Honolulu, Chef Glenn Chu, owner and executive chef of Indigo, found his roots in the kitchen early on. Coming from a Chinese American family, Chef Glenn grew up having the opportunity to watch his grandmother cooking up a storm with her outdoor, wood-fired wok. Her mastery of Chinese cuisine and attention to details were passed down to her grandson, who took those skills and raised them to world-class levels. Since 1994 Chef Glenn has been at the helm of Indigo, a highly acclaimed Asian Fusion restaurant in downtown Honolulu. His patrons have the honor of experiencing years of technical skill combined with an inate talent for melting international flavors. His vision and insistence on using top quality, fresh ingredients and supporting local businesses, is obvious in each dish he has meticulously created with a love and passion few other chefs possess. Chef Glenn has not strayed far from his native Chinese roots, with a large proportion of Indigo's menu finding roots in Chinese cuisine, but his splendid mastery of global spices and herbs has catapulted the traditional into a whole new stratosphere. A true master of fusion cuisine will have no doubt journeyed through the world, seeking new experiences with every meal, always learning and improving. Chef Glenn is one of those masters who has trekked through many countries, eating, cooking and evolving. Through his family ties and world travels, he has developed into Hawaii's premier chef not only for fusion cuisine, but for providing discerning foodies a culinary sanctuary that they can't resist coming back to over and over again.
