With a massive imported painted dragon and a tile bamboo hut adorning the space above part of the dining area, guests will be pleased to find their favorites like Crab Rangoon Pizza are still on the menu however they will also find plenty of new additions. Fong’s co-founder and executive chef Dennis Epps shared a glimpse of what a larger kitchen will allow his team to accomplish in the new space. “We are putting Fong’s signature spin on classic noodle and rice dishes as well as introducing new salads, expanding our appetizer offerings and even adding items to our late night menu.” he said. “There will be new twists on old favorites and some creative new items to enjoy when we open our doors in late March!” he added.
Guests who want to share one last meal at the original Fong’s locations are encouraged to do so as it will remain open for business as usual at the current location at 223 4th Street until late March with the new location anticipated to be open no later than the first week in April.
