Early life and education
Alvin Cailan grew up in Pico Rivera, California in a Filipino household.[7][4] To keep him out of trouble, Cailan’s parents got him a job washing dishes at a retreat house,[4] a kitchen that fed 150 people every day. By the time he was a senior in high school, Cailan was cooking and serving as kitchen manager.[6]
Cailan studied business at California State University, Fullerton. He worked for a construction company. The company was corrupt and paid Cailan two years severance so he would not be a whistleblower regarding the company's business practices. He then moved to Oregon and attended the Oregon Culinary Institute.[6]
Career
After culinary school Cailan worked at Olympia Provisions in Portland, Oregon; followed by Bouchon, and The French Laundry in Yountville, California.[5]
In 2011 Cailan founded Eggslut, an egg sandwich food truck in Los Angeles, with his cousin.[8][9] In 2013, Eggslut opened its first brick-and-mortar location in Los Angeles's Grand Central Market.[8] MSNBC declared Eggslut the most Instagrammed restaurants in the world, and Bon Appétit named it one of the Top 50 best Restaurants in the United States.[10] As of 2020 Eggslut has eight locations around the world including in Tokyo, London, Kuwait, and Korea.[11]
Cailan's cookbook titled Amboy: Recipes from the Filipino-American Dream was published by Houghton Mifflin Harcourt in August 2020.[1]
In 2021, Cailan was named the new head chef of Umami Burger.[12]
