Randy and Daddy Lau in the kitchen

The Lau Family

Three generations.
One kitchen.

My dad, Chung Sun Lau, has been cooking Cantonese food for over 50 years. He started as a teenager in Guangzhou, became head chef of his own restaurant in San Francisco, and now teaches my kids how to hold a wok.

We film every recipe, every technique, and every story we can. So they outlive us.
