Sam Woo owner charged

Gary Cheung, the owner of several locations of the Cantonese barbecue chain Sam Woo, plead guilty this month to felony charges of tax and insurance fraud, resulting from a fraudulent tax and workers’ compensation scheme that state prosecutors said Cheung had ran at his L.A. restaurants from 2012 to 2019. Cheung will face at least three years in prison and be forced to pay nearly $3 million in restitution.

Centeno said on Instagram that although the closure was “for the foreseeable future,” he hoped to reopen the concept eventually.
