Republic chronicles career of Johnny Chu

The Republic puts a “spotlight” on busy chef-restaurateur Johnny Chu with a somewhat encyclopedic feature that strangely doesn’t even quote Chu until the 27th paragraph:

Our food can show in America (that) Asian food is not just chop suey.

Besides running Sens Asian Tapas & Sake Bar in Phoenix and Tien Wong Hot Pot in Chandler, Chu is opening Mint in Scottsdale this spring.
