Huang's early exposure to the restaurant world came from frequent visits to his father’s establishments. He observed chefs at work and learned the art of expediting from his father. His mother also contributed to his culinary education, influencing his appreciation for traditional Taiwanese cooking.
In December 2009, Huang opened BaoHaus in Manhattan, a restaurant specializing in Taiwanese gua bao (steamed buns). The eatery gained considerable attention for its distinctive style and authentic flavors. He later attempted to expand with a second restaurant, “Xiao Ye,” but it was short-lived and ultimately closed.
Alongside his work in the kitchen, Huang built a reputation as a writer. He started the blog “Fresh Off the Boat,” where he explored themes of identity, food, and culture. In 2013, he partnered with Random House to publish his memoir, “Fresh Off the Boat.” The book received positive reviews, including praise from The New York Times and Publishers Weekly, for its candid and humorous portrayal of his life and experiences as an Asian American.
Riding the wave of his growing fame, Huang entered the television world. In 2011, he hosted "Cheap Bites" on the Cooking Channel, showcasing affordable dining options. His unique voice and perspective soon made him a recognizable figure in food media.
Eddie Huang tends to keep details of his personal life private. While there has been speculation about his relationships, public information remains limited and unverified. He is unmarried and has no children. In his memoir, he mentions his desire to wait for the right partner, believing that settling for less could lead to an unhappy marriage.
Through his various ventures—including publishing, restaurant ownership, and media appearances—Huang has amassed an estimated net worth of approximately $2 million.
