Empress by Boon chef Ho Chee Boon has opened Blue Whale, a new affordable restaurant focused on Southeast Asian food and, of course, his famous dumplings.
We’re lucky that Michelin-starred chef Ho Chee Boon, originally from Malaysia, thinks that San Francisco “is the perfect city.” He decided to settle here with his family after opening the SF location of opulent international Cantonese chain Hakkasan in 2012. After its pandemic closure in 2020, Ho made the grand and risky move to open his own fine dining Cantonese establishment, Empress by Boon, in the former historic Empress of China space in Chinatown — still in pandemic times in 2021.
“If people are missing some items, I’ll bring it back,” he said about Nyonya street food dishes like rojak, a refreshing salad that, in his version, consists of cucumber, daikon, green mango and extra crispy youtiao , covered in spicy peanut dressing and fried garlic bits. “In Singapore, it’s something people still do eat but not much now. I’ve never seen anyone in the U.S. selling this item,” Ho said.
