Sandy is a very well known chef in the Philippines and he is also the son of a very well known cooking book author “Nora Daza”. My mom has a collection of her cookbooks at home as she always use it when she cooks new dish. During the late 80s, my mom and I loves watching cooking show of the Dazas. There I first saw Chef Sandy Daza, co-hosting cooking with the Dazas.

Anyway, Chef Sandy graduated from New York’s Cornell University with a degree in hotel and restaurant management. He also attended Ecole Cordon Bleu and the American University both in Paris, France and went to Mandarin Hotel Cooking School on Thai Cuisine in Bangkok, Thailand.
