Here's some good news for Georgetown: if he and his partners can find the right 5,000 square foot space, acclaimed Chinese chef Peter Chang would like to bring one of his restaurants to the village. Gen Lee, who is Chang's partner and spokesman, is ready to talk to any interested parties.
As a person obsessed with high quality Chinese food, I hope a developer see's this post and helps to make it happen. Chang just opened in Arlington, and I made a beeline there in the first week. Fans lined up outside for as long as two hours to get a table. It lived up to all the cult hype. Delicious, authentic cooking. This is something we don't have but do need in Georgetown.
Please just take a moment, as you see Francesca Saunders and Spencer Joynt doing here, and think about what we have to do to get Peter Chang in Georgetown. Also, please read my post about eating at Chang's, and also The Washington Post piece from Tim Carman on Chang's incredible backstory. You'll be on board immediately.
I promised Gen Lee I would do something, but speak up if you want to see this happen. It will take all of us but we can make it happen.
