Quite literally.<\/p>\n

I don\u2019t usually report news here, but this event is special and deserves all the digital ink it can get. <\/p>\n

After a devastating fire in January 2020, Xi\u2019an Famous Foods’ outpost at 26-19 Jackson Ave in Long Island City was forced to close, much to the dismay of its multitude of fans. And now, in case you missed it on their Facebook page<\/a>, they are excited to announce that they\u2019ve reopened and take-out is available for their eager customers.<\/p>\n

I can remember standing on line, appetite at the ready, back in the days when Jason Wang and his dad occupied only a tiny stall in the depths of Golden Shopping Mall in Flushing. Now they\u2019re a mini-chain and I\u2019m happy to affirm that the quality is as top-notch and the food is as outrageously delicious as the original. Old photos of two of my absolute favorites:<\/p>\n
