Richard Chen is the proud Executive Chef of Wing Lei, a restaurant offering haute Chinese cuisine. The name Wing Lei was derived from the translation of the Chinese character for Wynn, and means "forever prosperous." Wing Lei has been awarded one star in the 2008 debut issue of the Las Vegas Michelin Guide, making it the only Chinese restaurant in North America with this honor. It has also received the AAA Four-Diamond award for 2008.

"There are not that many restaurants that offer truly fine, elegant Asian cuisine and I am excited that Mr. Wynn has given me the opportunity to create one for Wynn Las Vegas," says Chen. "I have the opportunity to introduce resort guests to the food I love to create, and have a loyal following of local customers, as well."

Chef Chen’s appointment as Executive Chef of Wing Lei was the culmination of an exhaustive search for a unique talent who would be able to create the fine Chinese cuisine envisioned for the restaurant. This talent is evident in Wing Lei.
