Back in December, we reported that the old Home Realty spot by 49th and Stone Way was being remodeled by the owners of House of Hong, the famed dim sum restaurant in the International District, and would become Bamboo Village. The My Wallingford blog has followed up with a call to the owners to get some more info:
Lee told us that the restaurant, called Bamboo Village, will open in late May or early June and will serve dim sum all day, every day. “Customers always asked to have dim sum later in the day,” Lee said. Bamboo Village will also have a full menu of mostly Cantonese and Mandarin dishes.
Dim sum in Wallingford. Epic.
Growing up ABC (American-born Chinese), I still had my fair share of dim sum back in my childhood in Phoenix. I learned that it’s not true dim sum unless you run into everyone you know on Sunday morning. No planning — that’s just where the people WERE. I hope this is that kind of dim sum place.
Very, very happy about this!
w00t!
Wow! I used to eat dim sum at House of Hong every Sunday. That’s outstanding news!
YAHOOOOOOOOOO
I will be first in line!!!!!!!!!!
Dim sum in Wallingford? right down the street? Awesome!!!
Love it! Now all we need is a Vietnamese place!
p.s. I think this may be a bit of a problem for the Moon Temple!
Awesome! I can’t wait!
We have to wait that long? I vote for April! I will be behind Cathy in line… Thanks House of Hong folks.
Great news! I look forward to giving them a visit as soon as they open.
