The Chairman

Los Angeles

PERMANENTLY CLOSED

The San Fran OG Chinese food truck has opened a restaurant in downtown LA. Try the baked bar and yuzu-glazed chicken wings. Fun facts: the Chairman logo is a play on propaganda-style artwork, and the panda bear his an allusion to Mao Tse-tung. This food is the opium of the people.
