🍽️ Liu Fang, the Chinese-born chef behind Abundance Culinary in Cleveland Heights, never expected to live in the U.S. — and even when she moved here in early 2020, she certainly didn’t do so with intentions of opening a restaurant. 🥟 She only started cooking dumplings and steaming buns from her Wickliffe home as a coping mechanism, an effort to ease her worried mind while her husband, Carl Setzer, a Chardon native, was being held in a government-run detention facility back in Beijing. ⏰ “I tried to be awake whenever he was available to text,” she says. “I would stay awake by making buns and dumplings, both to feed the children and to help with my anxiety.” 🔗 Click the link in our bio to read the full Abundance Culinary story. ✒ katebigam 📸 daniel.lozada #cleveland #cle #clevelandheights #clehistory #cuisine #chinesecuisine #food #abundanceculinary
