News Peter Chang (or Peter Cheng) moves to Richmond - ties to Atlanta remain unclear

For the past year, Chang has been splitting his time between the restaurant in Charlottesville and another, called simply Peter Chang, in Atlanta. (The two restaurants have different ownerships, though Chang has an interest in each.) With Lee acting as interpreter, Chang said he is relocating to Richmond to make the new Peter Chang Cafe his base, a place to train chefs in authentic Sichuan cuisine.
But this morning, Carmen told me via Twitter that he had spoken to Chang about his Atlanta business and said that "Chang indicated the partner(s) wasn't interested in his expansion plans." Which sounds to me like he's jumped ship.
No one is answering the phone at Peter Cheng's - it is 9 a.m. after all. We'll update you when we hear back from them.
