""Pizza Pockets'' instead of Michelin-star-worthy fois gras - after a judge held her on bail for her latest alleged food filching. The 34-year-old wannabe influencer, who has been repeatedly busted in recent weeks for allegedly scamming top restaurants out of free meals, is being held on $4,500 cash bail in the women's quarters at the city's notorious jail by Brooklyn Criminal Court Judge Jung Park after she was arrested for at least the ninth time Friday."
"But she was only finally jailed when the judge set her bail at $1,500 cash or $3,000 bond for Friday's alleged crime, then tacked on another $1,500 bail for each of the two cases she was recently issued bench warrants over - after failing to show up for intake for court-ordered supervised release. Her bail now totals $4,500. The Michelin-star-loving menace hadn't posted bail as of Monday afternoon, records show."
"Chung - who flaunts Prada heels, Louis Vuitton handbags and Hermes belts all over Instagram - often posted about the pricey dishes on her page in addition to running a mediocre blog reviewing her meals. She has been known to bring her own lighting equipment and camera to record herself as a supposed influencer trying out the dishes. Her string of arrests extend an alleged crime spree than began in late October, when restaurants including the Michelin-starred Francie,"
Pei Chung, a 34-year-old who markets herself as a food influencer, is held at Rikers Island on $4,500 cash bail after an alleged dine-and-dash arrest. She is accused of repeatedly scamming high-end restaurants by ordering expensive dishes and refusing to pay, allegedly targeting venues including Francie, Lavender Lake, Motorino and Peter Luger. A recent Williamsburg incident involved a $149 order at Mole Mexican Bar and Grill. The judge imposed cumulative cash bails after bench warrants for missed supervised-release intake, bringing bail to $4,500. Chung regularly posts luxury brands and pricey meal photos on Instagram and reportedly records herself with lighting equipment to promote reviews.
