Peter Chang, who was born in China and first worked in the U.S. at the Chinese embassy in Washington, DC, is among modern chefs credited with bringing authentic Sichuan cuisine to the United States. He was for many years a wandering chef, tracked by foodies as he moved from kitchen to kitchen. In the past decade, however, he has settled down in the Washington metro area, with seven restaurants in Virginia, one in the District of Columbia and more in Maryland.

Peter Chang 3.0 is located at 6224 North Kings Highway in Alexandria.
