Philadelphia Phillies Chan Ho Park has been pitching in the World Series but did you know what fuels his dazzling fastball?  It’s not steroids but good home cooking from his beautiful wife Ri-Hye Park.  Interestingly, she grew up in Japan and didn’t eat much of Korean food.  However, she’s a trained chef having attended the CIA: Culinary Institute of America.

The Philadelphia newspapers have taken an interest in Chan Ho Park with a third article about him and his family this year.  This time it’s about his lovely wife and her cooking.  Mrs. Park had a very affluent upbringing in Japan and she became used to the best restaurants that Tokyo had to offer, but it turned out that she now finds herself cooking Korean comfort food for her family.

She cooks Korean comfort food for him, with a little bit of Japanese and European dishes to round out the menu.

“My husband is very traditional,” Park said. “And he really wanted traditional home cooking, the kind of food his mother makes. This was all new to me.”

“Once I started to learn, my creativity got more expanded, and it went fast. And now I see that Korean food is very interesting, good food, and very healthy, too . . . “
