The Only Chef in LA That Makes an Ancient Traditional Dish

Hi friends! I’m on Eater LA talking about Beggar’s Chicken today. I’m was so excited when I found chef Henry Chang. He’s the only chef in all of Los Angeles that makes this ancient Chinese dish called Beggar’s Chicken. Make sure to click here and read my Eater piece to learn more about it!
