LEE HOW FOOK

 

“A Chinatown tradition.”

For over twenty years, this family owned BYOB Chinese restaurant was run by Chef Shing Chung and his wife Doris. Now the two are new grandparents and wanting to enjoy their golden years with their family. The two gradually turned to their daughter, Sieu, and her husband Andrew Nguyen to uphold the restaurant where they worked so hard, for so many years.

Lee How Fook offers a casual and relaxed atmosphere where everyone feels at home. The head chef, Bo Mai and sous chef, Ming Zhou, have followed Chef Chung for many years and hasn't missed a beat. Lee How Fook has an abundance selection of authentic Cantonese dishes that are prepared fresh with every order.
