Big Sam Young

Owner & Head Chef at S'more & Young's Palace

Owner and head chef of S’more and Young’s Palace, Big Sam Young is one of Sydney’s most recognisable hospitality personalities, known for his larger-than-life energy and a cooking style built around big, unapologetic flavour. His recommendations lean heavily into his love of Asian food, especially Vietnamese, from bowls of pho and loaded bánh mì to bánh cuốn, bánh khọt and the Vietnamese iced coffee spots he keeps coming back to.
