Introducing Cast's Fearless Muse
Her approach to life never wavers: be bold, push boundaries, never give up. Plus, her bling game is crazy good and her unapologetic use of color slays. In other words, she's an all-around badass, inspiration and our current crush. And since Mother's Day is all about celebrating amazing women, now's the perfect time to get to know Kathy, peel back a few layers and find out how she nails her signature effortless-glam style.
Watch any episode of House of Fang and Kathy's passion for food and family is palpable, as is the immense respect she has for her business partner/father Peter Fang, legendary chef of House of Nanking. It is he, along with her mom and grandmother, who taught Kathy to cook when she was young.
Another through line of the show? Her never-ending quest to honor her family's Chinese heritage and legacy while remaining true to the modern, creative and daring parts of herself. (Spoiler alert: she never fails to impress.)
