Line-Break-graphic

YaDa Chef was created in 2000 by Joseph Yacino and Bryan Daniel.

Using the first two letters of each last name (Ya and Da), we created our company's name, YaDa Chef.

An added plus is that both terms, Ya and Da, are positives and mean "Yes," in other languages.  Creating our "Yes Yes Chef!" company.
