Chef. Johnny Chu, opened Fate, a restaurant featuring Chu's unique Chinese cooking, near Central Avenue and Roosevelt. Chu displays the work of local artists, showcases local bands. Chu is a master of Asian cuisine. His sauces seem to always have a perfect balance of ingredients. Rather than being a mix of flavors that communicate a single taste, his sauces have a complexity that deliver layers of flavors from the moment it hits your tongue, through the full melding of flavors as you chew, to the finishing sensations once you swallow. Chef Johnny Chu puts a progressive face on his native Hong Kong with Pan-Asian masterpieces.
