EP 108 From China to Cleveland Heights - Liu Fang's Abundant Life

Some of the best modern Chinese food in Cleveland is found in a silver retro diner car in Cleveland Heights where Liu Fang and husband Carl Setzer have found a home for Abundance Culinary. Moving here just as the pandemic started to rage in the US, Fang found comfort cooking dumplings and other foods that felt familiar to her. After finding her footing through pop-ups at Larder and relishing the abundance of local, fresh ingredients, meats, herbs, spices and other resources, she eventually built out an exciting and evolving menu so big that she needed her own place. Her pre-America story is largely unknown. From working the coal mine industry to running China's largest craft brewery, she shares her incredible journey in this episode. This episode is supported by Kate's Fish and Edgewater Hospitality.
