Sarah Jessica Parker at CICF

SARAH JESSICA PARKER

I was bummed out that I missed seeing Sarah Jessica Parker (SJP) at CICF. I have been a long time fan of hers.

I adore her partly because I love Sex in the City. More so, I heard from a friend that when SJP was on Oprah she said that Chinatown was her favorite place in NYC.

SJP has also been spotted next door eating dumplings with Matthew Broderick. Another friend tells me that she was even married in a church in Chinatown!

SJP is an iconic modern woman who’s a great a dresser and loves Chinatown! She’s a true NYer and definitely one of my favorite actresses!

FYI my sis said she ordered pistachio with chocolate sprinkles!

Grand Bo Ky Restaurant

Because Bo Ky is just that good, they had to open a second location. It makes perfect sense now that Chinatown has spanned out into what used to be Little Italy.

Grand Bo Ky’s food is just as good as their old location which resides on Bayard street.

It’s great seeing hard working families able to expand their businesses in light of a difficult economy. Brothers John and Angle are second generation restaurateurs. This family will own 2 of 3 Chiu Zhao restaurants in Chinatown.

Mr. Tang Closes

Mr Tang restaurant has been on the corner of Bayard and Mott for nearly a decade. It has always been known to be one of the more popular restaurants. The prices here were a bit higher and the atmosphere a bit fancier than the average Chinatown restaurant.

For many locals, this was a spot where you could have a real dining experience. I’ve celebrated many special occasions, like birthdays here with family and friends.

The eatery had been known to attract big names like Jackie Chan and Russel Wong. The food here was very delicious.
