Susur In The City

Short blog post tonight -- just wanted to share a cool Q&A with famed Toronto chef Susur Lee, who recently relocated to NYC to open a restaurant, Shang, in the impossibly hip Lower East Side.

Susur ran his two restaurants, Susur, and more recently Lee, in Toronto for decades and he has been arguably the most influential single chef in Hogtown, inspiring a whole new generation of chefs.

The interview offers a glimpse into the culinary mastermind's views on success, the restaurant biz, Toronto vs NYC cuisine, famous faces who've dined at Shang, and what he misses about T.O.

Here's hoping he does well in his new venture, even though we miss him too.

Salut!

Suzanne
