"When The Chairman opened in 2009, it was one of the only Cantonese restaurants in the city to offer fresh, local ingredients in a modern setting. Nearly 10 years later, the restaurant still draws a loyal following for its classic cuisine, so enticing that hardly anyone looks up from their meal once the food starts flowing. Basically—The Chairman is packed every night for a reason. The stalwart favorite promises an upscale atmosphere, locally sourced ingredients, and an earnest dedication to traditional Cantonese flavors using time-intensive techniques." - Kate Springer
