Pioneering chef and restaurateur Sam Ung — founder of Phnom Penh Noodle House, Seattle’s first known Cambodian restaurant, and author of a 2011 autobiography about his experience as a refugee and genocide survivor — died of a heart attack March 5 at his home in Independence, Mo. He was 70.
Ung’s work ethic was legendary among his friends and family. The longtime owner of Phnom Penh Noodle House didn’t procrastinate — if he had a goal in mind, he wouldn’t wait to get started.
