The Excellent Pork Chop House is indeed “excellent”. The food is oh so yummy to my tummy. I think a meal there would cost you a little under $6.
The short film talks about how affects of 9/11 on the Chinatown community. Many cars have been illegally parking on our narrow streets which makes it hard for businesses to operate. When it’s hard to find parking, it’s hard for us to recieve our deliveries. It also makes it hard for our customers to come into Chinatown.
Not only is this traffic congestion bad for businesses but for general members of the community. Chinatown has a very large aged population and it is already very difficult for the ambulances to navigate in the city without having to deal with this extra parking drama.
Before hearing about Clogged Arteries, I had contacted Jan for an interview for my radio diary. Out of all the interviews that I conducted (which were a lot!), I found his to be one of the most informative. Although we run a business in Chinatown, I was not aware of a lot of the issues that he brought up in his documentary.
In NYC, many of us tend to splurge here and there on a fancy dinner. What cooler way to enjoy a night out on the town while supporting the Asian American community? Listed below are some of the benefit dinners that are going on in the community. I love these organizations so much, that I will personally be attending all of them.
Asian Women in Business (AWIB) Leadership Awards Dinner will take place October 16th (Tuesday) at the Hilton. AWIB is one of my favorite Asian American organizations. For more information check out www.awib.org
CICF has been around for a long time and is considered to be a second generation business. Thanks to the foundation that my father has laid down for me, CICF has grown and continued to be a success.
What has our father-daughter relationship been like? In short: it’s been a lesson in entreprenurship. I don’t have an MBA but I’ve learned how to run a business from the school of hard knocks.
Dad has been dragging me to work since I was 12. I had to give up the weekends playing with my friends to go to work.
