Luke Sung is a young cook with loads of talent. He's trained with some of the best French chefs in the city, and he's now putting that training to work at his own Marina-area restaurant that specializes in small French plates. The restaurant is truly a family affair -- his wife, Kitty, handles the front of the house, and his family lives upstairs. The modern interior features brushed stainless steel wainscotting that helps to enlarge the narrow space. The open kitchen in the rear separates the cozy dining room from the heated patio that can be used year-round.
