Hi,
Sam Sifton spent Chinese new year at No. 7.

The scene was reminiscent of rock clubs, underground dance parties, the unrelenting coolness of youth. People spoke to each other about shared experiences: Their first sandwich at No. 7 Sub, Mr. Kord’s shop in the Ace Hotel in Manhattan; their memories of the dumplings at Xiao Ye. Bloggers took photographs to post in the morning. It was as if the restaurant had been transformed into a rock club and Mr. Huang and Mr. Kord into a band.
That very night, our son Matt was stranded in Seattle trying to get a flight home.
