Alvin Cailan (born 1983) is an American chef, author,[5] and television host. He is the host of First We Feast’s The Burger Show which airs on YouTube[1] and Hulu.[6] Cailan launched Eggslut, a food truck that specialized in egg sandwiches.[3] The food truck quickly became popular and often had waits that stretched to two hours long.[3][7] Eggslut has brick-and-mortar locations, including at Los Angeles' Grand Central Market and Venice, Glendale, and Las Vegas.[8] Cailan was named the head chef of Umami Burger in 2021.

Early life and education

Alvin Cailan grew up in Pico Rivera, California in a Filipino household.[9][3] To keep him out of trouble, Cailan’s parents got him a job washing dishes at a retreat house,[3] a kitchen that fed 150 people every day. By the time he was a senior in high school, Cailan was cooking and serving as kitchen manager.[8]

Cailan studied business at California State University, Fullerton. He worked for a construction company. The company was corrupt and paid Cailan two years severance so he would not be a whistleblower regarding the company's business practices. He then moved to Oregon and attended the Oregon Culinary Institute.[8]

Career

Eggslut in Las Vegas

After culinary school Cailan worked at Olympia Provisions in Portland, Oregon; followed by Bouchon, and The French Laundry in Yountville, California.[7]

In 2011 Cailan founded Eggslut, an egg sandwich food truck in Los Angeles, with his cousin.[10][11] In 2013, Eggslut opened its first brick-and-mortar location in Los Angeles's Grand Central Market.[10] MSNBC declared Eggslut the most Instagrammed restaurant in the world, and Bon Appétit named it one of the Top 50 best Restaurants in the United States.[12] As of 2025, Eggslut has a number of stores around the world including in Tokyo, London, Kuwait, Korea and Singapore.[13]

Cailan's cookbook titled Amboy: Recipes from the Filipino-American Dream was published by Houghton Mifflin Harcourt in August 2020.[5]

In 2021, Cailan was named the new head chef of Umami Burger.[14]
