It's a distinctive storefront, and was a popular dim sum restaurant for decades, and was one of the few large venues in Chinatown.

The Pandemic forced the owners to convert it to a grocery market.

I had a couple of lunches there, and shopped there in recent years.

That being said, it's probably structurally decrepit by now.

Hopefully, whatever takes its place won't just be a soulless glass box like all the other new highrise towers around town.
