Jimmy Wang (Okami Group) - land of opportunity

Jimmy Wang came to Australia from China in 2002 to study engineering. He's ended up owning 49 Japanese restaurants under the Okami brand and has just launched Oak Leaf Education Institute in Melbourne to train people in hospitality. The initial motivation was to solve Okami's staffing shortage but he's also keen to inspire international students to work hard and find their own place in the Australia he sees as a land of opportunity. https://www.okamirestaurant.com.au Follow Dirty Linen on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/dirtylinenpodcast Follow Dani Valent https://www.instagram.com/danivalent Follow Rob Locke (Executive Producer) https://www.instagram.com/foodwinedine/ Follow Huck (Executive Producer) https://www.instagram.com/huckstergram/ LISTEN TO OUR OTHER FOOD PODCASTS https://linktr.ee/DeepintheWeedsNetwork Dirty Linen is a food podcast hosted by Australian journalist Dani Valent.
