The junior Fang, a two-time 'Chopped' champion, spoke with The Examiner about the unexpected advantages of growing up in a restaurant, food media trends and what she hopes people will learn from 'House of Fang.'
If the city of San Francisco ever needs a homegrown culinary ambassador, chef Kathy Fang would be an ideal candidate.
Many know Kathy Fang from House of Nanking, the Kearny Street dining institution opened by her father and mother, Peter and Lily Fang, in 1988. Kathy spent most of her non-school time in her parents' restaurant and, along with her father, co-founded her own eating establishment, Fang, in SoMA in 2009, which serves dishes influenced by both Northern and Southern China’s cuisine. Along the way, she became a celebrity chef via the Food Network.
When I opened Fang, a lot of people said,"Hey, have you ever thought about being on food TV? Because you're very friendly, you can talk about food and you don't seem shy."House of Nanking was successful because my Dad was doing things that were different from typical Chinese cuisine. He wasn't thinking of modernization. He was thinking,"If I want to make my food stand out, I need to do something a little different.
When I did Fang with my Dad, it was a clean slate. We were 50/50, and my Dad just said,"As long as I don't have to manage how this stuff works.”
