He opened the first Peter Chang in Charlottesville in 2011, which is still in business, before the RVA locations started popping up though I’m not sure how often he frequents it or if he is be affiliated with that location any more. Before that he opened and trained the staff at Taste of China in CVille in 2009 which is also still around but he’s long gone from there. From this article from a few months ago it reads that he spends most of his time in Bethesda cooking at a spot called Q by Peter Chang but does return to RVA from time to time.

IIRC there is a HUGE chinese population in parts of maryalnd.

At one point the best chinese in DC was in the hotel lobby of like a Holiday Inn that a bunch of Chinese nationals were staying in.

Looks like it was a Days Innhttps://www.onlyinyourstate.com/dc/hidden-chinese-food-restaurant-washington-dc/

" Because it's attached to the Days Inn where the Chinese Embassy housed their workers while doing renovations (for obvious reasons, they imported their workers). "
