Mission Chinese Food Opens NYC Outpost Tuesday

It's almost ready.
It’s almost ready.

It’s almost here: FloFab has it that San Francisco cult fave Mission Chinese Food will open Tuesday at 154 Orchard Street on the LES. Like spring’s other big Asian import, Pok Pok Ny, Mission won’t take reservations for tables — only for the twelve seats at the bar. As it does in San Fran, the restaurant will donate 75 cents from each dish to charity; here it’s the Food Bank of New York City (see S.F.’s menu here to get an idea of what will be served). Mission will be dinner only to start, adding lunch and drinks a bit later on, and it will be, quirkily, closed Wednesdays. Get ready. [Diner’s Journal/NYT, Earlier]
