Ceu on the other hand jumped right into the restaurant business. His first job was as a sushi apprentice in Florida. He then worked as a sushi chef in Dallas, Colorado, Austin and New Orleans. In the last five years, Ceu and Mang came to Houston to follow their dreams of opening a restaurant together, along with the help of their father.

Together, they make a great team with their different backgrounds one in the food industry and the other in the restaurant industry. Chef Ceu was even featured on the Food Network television show “Diners, Drive-Ins & Dives” showcasing his brisket sushi roll fusion cuisine.

The brothers have a passion for providing a one-of-a-kind dining experience for every customer that visits Land & Sea Sushi.

Chef Ceu brings a unique talent to Land & Sea Sushi. As a chef, he believes chefs should know how to make a variety of dishes and cuisines. Over the years of his restaurant experience, he picked up not only how to make sushi but how to make American cuisine, and par ticularly BBQ.

“You have to know how to make more than sushi to be a good chef,” says Ceu. “I am a fusion chef. I am not just a Japanese sushi chef. I know how to make American cuisine, BBQ and other Asian cuisine as well.”

With Ceu as the chef, customers get to experience a variety of fu sion dishes with influences from all different cuisines. Their growing reputation in Katy is proof customers enjoy what Chef Ceu creates on the plate.

“Being a chef, I have a passion for making food and connecting with customers,” says Chef Ceu. “When customers come in and sit at the sushi bar, I talk to them, get to know them and learn what they like to eat. I can then make a special dish just for them that combines Continued on page 59

Land & Sea Sushi prides itself on being able to offer this unique ex perience of one-of-a-kind dishes to their customers. Another example of their unique atmosphere is not having soy sauce on the tables. Soy sauce is usually a staple on the table at most Asian cuisine restaurants. However, this is not the case at Land & Sea Sushi.

“Customers can have soy sauce anywhere, but what they can’t have is our special sauces,” says Chef Ceu. “We want to offer other sauces for them to try to have a unique dining experience instead of default ing to soy sauce.”

With dishes like the smoky goodness brisket roll and beef medal lion faux sushi, it is plain to see Land & Sea Sushi is not like other sushi restaurants. Chef Ceu also smokes all of his brisket in house at the restaurant. If something different and delicious is what you are looking for stop in at 22720 Morton Ranch Rd., Suite 170, Katy, TX 77449. Not only will you experience great food but you will witness the achievement of the American dream. Ceu and Mang ‘s strong faith in God, dedication and hard work helped them achieve their dream. Be a part of it too by visiting Land & Sea Sushi.

College tuition is expensive. Even if parents start saving for their child’s college education the day they are born, they will likely still not have saved enough to pay for their child’s entire college education. Thus, figuring out how to pay for college can be difficult.

Karen Sears, a 2019 Tomball Memorial High School graduate, paired creativity and hard work to come up with a plan to pay for her college tuition at Sam Houston State Uni versity. She is working her way through her undergraduate education, but in a creative way.

“Last summer, our office received a letter through our fax ma chine from a student who was looking for a sponsor to help pay for her paralegal certificate,” says Paul Cannon, trial attorney and mar keting director at Simmons and Fletcher, P.C. “The letter explained she wanted to get her paralegal certificate so she could work while going to school to get experience in the field, because ultimately she wanted to attend law school.”

After graduating high school, Karen sent out hundreds of faxes to businesses looking for support. Paul didn’t respond to the first fax, but after receiving a similar one six months later noting her achieve ment of attaining her paralegal certificate, he felt God might be really trying to tell him something.

“I reached out and thought she could come work for us as a marketing assistant,” says Paul. “She turned the job down, but accepted a meeting with me to discuss the marketing of her online business.”

As another way to pay for her education, Karen started an online business where she sold wholesale goods. All while working at another part-time job at a dentist office, Karen built a website for the business, and ran the business from her parent’s home in Tomball.

“I offered to give her some advice on how to improve the website and marketing of her online business,” says Paul.

After the meeting Karen not only had a new direction for her business, but a mentor. Paul suggested instead of selling the products individually to package and market them as gift baskets. Karen took the idea and ran with it. The Christmas shopping season was gearing up and it ended up being the perfect opportunity for Karen to grow her online business.

Karen quickly made enough money to cover the cost of
