Wilson Tang, owner of forthcoming Nom Wah Tea Parlor, today shared a video tour of the completed kitchen of his Chinatown dim sum shop, plus news that its final inspection will happen next week. If all goes according to plan, the posts announces that soft opening should begin "after Chinese New Year." The Lunar New Year falls on February 19 this year, so while the phrasing is technically vague (the attendant festival runs through early March and, strictly speaking, a gaping, terrifying expanse of time falls "after" Chinese New Year), it looks like Nom Wah's debut could be just around the corner.
