On Christmas day two years ago about a dozen members of a local social group met for dinner at Kam Fong in Chinatown before attending a Matisyahu concert at the 930 Club. Several of us still hang out regularly, and we ate at Kam Fong about 2 weeks ago. We were the last table on the restaurant’s last night.
So…Kam Fong, thanks for the memories, and thanks for all the beef chow fun with Chinese vegetable I’ve eaten over the last couple of years. I’ll miss the shock value of telling people to meet me at the restuarant next to CVS that has ducks hanging from their necks in the window.
As for those of us who originally met at that restaurant, and were there for the restaurant’s last meal…it was a powerful moment…that we will remember.
