My neighbor Yuen Yuen will be closing its doors on 12/31.
Yuen Yuen has been serving up its sam bow fan, fresh squeezed orange juice and dessert soups so long; that I can't remember when it wasn't there. I also remember reading a NY Times write up that raved about their snake soup. This hidden neighborhood treasure might even be older than me!
The two women that usually work in the front both open and close their shop before CICF. Working more than 12 hour days for that many years; they are probably due for retirement.
Get your last meal here while you can!
Part of a changing Chinatown.... What's coming next?
