Kathy Fang on Collaboration, Experimentation and Maintaining a Taste of Tradition

Two-time Chopped champion, chef, restaurateur and entrepreneur Kathy Fang reveals all of her thoughts behind her new reality show, Chef Dynasty: House of Fang. The quiet competitor unpacks why growing up in her family’s booming San Francisco restaurant left her hungry for a different lifestyle, driving her brief pursuit of 9 to 5 office jobs. She explains how her love for connecting with people through food, passion for experimenting with new ideas and traditional personality inspire her own restaurant’s menu and atmosphere. Kathy reveals what really goes into the “Fang Flavor,” how her culinary perspective influences her professional and personal relationship with her parents, and her aspirations for her one-of-a-kind restaurant, House of Fang. She shares what recipe this chef mastered first, her favorite memories from Chopped and the Hong Kong dish she misses most.
