I find his whole steez irksome. There's the whole over-the-top cultural appropriation bit (he's not an urban Asian kid from NY or Cali). There's the privilege angle (family owned local chain of steakhouses, went to law school, flamed out in law, fam set him up with restaurant).
He plays up the child of immigrants thing, but he's the poster child for privilege.
