About ERIK
Erik Sun is a freedive spearfisher, hunter, and chef/owner of San Francisco restaurants - Assuwa, Assuwa Noodle, and The Hunted. A native of Los Angeles, Erik was drawn to San Francisco for its vibrant restaurant scene and its ethos of valuing farm to table. Prior to creating restaurants, he owned a South African spearfishing company that captured over 10 spearfishing world records. During this time he discovered the need to connect the prize with food and the whole process from nature through the entire meal. Respecting the animal and the ingredients is very much at the heart of Erik’s cooking and overall philosophy about food. He is the Managing Director of Zabuton Restaurant Group, a restaurant and food investment group.
