Our Chef:  Chris Chung is executive chef at the new AKA Bistro in Lincoln, MA, winner of a Best of Boston 2011 award.  Chris was born in Honolulu, but grew up in Macao, a former Portuguese colony where food was often a combination of influences from east and west, and Chung became intrigued by it at a very early age. Chung’s family returned to Hawaii where Chris was educated and spent summers in various Japanese restaurant kitchens on Oahu.  A meeting with James Beard Award-winning chef Kenneth Oringer in 2004 led to UNI, an intimate sashimi bar adjacent to Oringer’s CLIO in Boston, where Chung served as chef.  Chung lived and worked in Los Angeles for a few years, but returned to UNI in 2009 and was named a Rising Star Chef that same year.  In 2010, Chung left UNI to open AKA in suburban Lincoln, MA with his business partner Christian Touche.
