The key to any successful business is confidence and commitment from the people that run it. Having been there for each other from the start (literally), Chef Keven and Robyn Lee represent two business partners who have formed an unmatched level of trust and dedication, fortified by their special bond of brother and sister.

Growing up, Keven and Robyn were always close. With only five years between them, they found quite a bit of commonality in one another. Both being very ambitious and passionate it was to no surprise that they would wind up being one of Hollywood’s most dynamic duos. Most say the apple does not fall far from the tree… Well there is quite a bit of truth in that. Keven and Robyn grew up in both a creative and entrepreneurial family. They are both the perfect combination of their parents. Their father, Ron Lee, is a world renowned artist and their mother, Jill Lee, not only managed her husband’s career for over 36 years and still does to this very day, but she also owned an operated a gourmet café within their establishment for many years. It is no wonder where Cheven’s gets his passion and talents for the culinary arts. They were always encouraged to strive for greatness, and there was no shortage of support or encouragement growing up.

Eventually, adulthood took them in two different directions. Keven headed off to the Culinary Institute of America in New York, while Robyn pursued a career in real estate and finance in Las Vegas. 


Chef Keven, who soon became known to many as “Cheven”, continued to follow his culinary passions around the globe, where he immersed himself in different cultures and challenged his skills by cooking in some of the most barren environments. His passion and dedication to excellence took him to numerous highly acclaimed culinary destinations where he was afforded unique opportunities to develop menus and organize extravagant events. Those experiences are what ultimately propelled Cheven to branch out and start his own company, My World on a Plate, in West Hollywood California in 2009.


Meanwhile, Cheven’s younger sister, Robyn, continued to excel in real estate, but was ready for a change. So she took a hiatus from her current job to help a former associate who had recently opened a restaurant. Within a short time, Robyn had truly understood her brother’s passion for the hospitality industry. It was about this time that Cheven mentioned to her that he was looking for a business partner to help build and run his new company. They both knew instantly that Robyn’s knack for business, sales and finance would be the perfect match to Cheven’s creative talents. 


Since then, Cheven and Robyn have grown My World on a Plate into one of the most sought after catering and event production teams in Southern California. Their work has been showcased at major retail venues, festivals, movie and television premiers, and highly regarded charity events.  Some of their clients include Louis Vuitton, VERTU, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Michael Nobel, Wayne Gretsky, LA Kings, Sylvester Stallone, Manny Pacquaio, After School All Stars and March of Dimes…just to name a few…

Though they may have playfully pulled at each other’s hair growing up as siblings, Cheven and Robyn now avoid pulling their hair out, knowing they have each other to rely on. The bond that the two owners share is what they contribute to My World on a Plate’s success.  Take it from Robyn— “I can’t express how lucky I am to not only work with a highly respected, extremely talented chef who is not only my business partner, but just so happens to be my brother. He inspires greatness in those around him, and it is nothing short of an honor to share this adventure with him”
