 The evening’s host was world-renowned chef Susur Lee, who has paved the future of global Asian culture. It’s a family affair in the Bent-Lee kitchen with his sons Levi, Kai and Jet.
"This year, we're highlighting generations of family meals, special birthdays, holidays and sick days that taught our creative trust of Angeleno Asian cuisine, about making Asian food. Bringing young and old together, LUCKYRICE showcases the secret family heirloom dishes of our lucky food stars” said Chef Susur Lee.

Hong Kong-born Toronto-based Susur Lee (center Chef) is best known in US, as the Chef with the highest score in Top Chef Masters history (photo from BravoTV in June 9, 2010) and made it all the way to the Season 2 finals, where he tied with Rick Moonen for second place a half point behind Marcus Samuelsson.
Susur became a worldwide leader in Asian fusion cuisine, because of blending traditional Chinese dishes with classical French techniques.
