Jing Fong plans to reopen at a new location in Chinatown this July
It’s official: Chinatown’s largest restaurant is staying in Chinatown. Jing Fong, which previously announced it would be reopening at a new location this summer, has confirmed that it’s staying in the neighborhood, though its address is still unknown. The new restaurant is substantially smaller than its previous home on Elizabeth Street, marketing director Claudia Leo tells Eater, but owner Truman Lam is apparently working with an architect to recreate the ambiance of its sprawling dining room at the new 125-seat location. Executive chef Jin Ruan will continue on at the new restaurant, as well.
A mad scramble for presents
Alyaeh Hammons, 12, of Sidney, daughter of Heather Richards, uses her head to help her hold onto presents as kids scramble to open Christmas presents at midnight on the morning of Sunday, Dec. 20. The present scramble was held at Rolling Hills Skate. Over 160 presents were wrapped with cards inside that could be exchanged for gifts such as new roller skates or $100. The presents took 27 hours to wrap and only a couple of minutes for the kids to tear apart during “Christmas All Night Skate.”
