Prof Chan's, a renowned Michelin-rated restaurant from Hong Kong, has opened its first U.S. location in Long Island City, New York, on February 15. The restaurant focuses exclusively on authentic Hunan cuisine, renowned for its fiery flavors and distinctive spices. Owner Chi Zhang partnered with Professor Guanhua Chan, who initially opened the restaurant in Hong Kong, to introduce this unique cuisine to the U.S. market. With an emphasis on specialty dishes and no other Chinese cuisine styles on the menu, Prof Chan's aims to create a true Hunan culinary experience for American diners.
Prof Chan's has successfully maintained its Michelin recognition for 12 years, showcasing the restaurant's commitment to delivering authentic, high-quality Hunan cuisine.
Owner Chi Zhang emphasizes the uniqueness of Prof Chan's by stating, 'We wanted to open a Hunan restaurant, just doing very specialty, spicy Hunanese food...'
The restaurant's name pays homage to Professor Guanhua Chan, who opened the original establishment due to a lack of quality Hunan cuisine near his university.
With six locations already in China, Prof Chan's New York City branch marks the restaurant's first venture into the U.S. market, aiming to bring authentic Hunan flavors.
