Millennials-run Chinese restaurant rolls out 'Nixon in China' banquet in NYC

NEW YORK - Junzi Kitchen, a fast-casual Chinese restaurant chain founded and run by millennials, has rolled out a special menu titled "Nixon in China" in New York.

The outlet of the restaurant around Bryant Park in Manhattan, New York City, intrigued diners with the menu inspired by China's welcome banquet for former US president Richard Nixon in 1972 and an interactive conversation on the story behind the then national banquet.

"Now it's all the more important to talk about food when we talk about unity and the moment that has changed our lives," said Zhao Yong, co-founder and chief executive officer of the restaurant.
