Hi!

We’re getting a medium amount of interest in our first ever game night! Not sure what that means or what that will translate into. But if you like the idea… come out! Be the catalyst for helping build momentum!

When: Thursday 5/7 6pm-9pm

$20 entry per person. Kids 7-13 ($12). Pay at the door. Entry includes small buffet. Drinks available at the bar.

I’m thinking very free flowing. I’d rather play than organize. Haha! So, let’s self organize with the power of love and friendship and community. Bring your favorite game and ask somebody if they want to join you.

I’ll bring Chess, and Rumikube! So I’ll be looking for my chess players and my kubers!

No need to RSVP. Just show up.

Sesame Shrimp! A classic! Minced shrimp spread over toast and coated with sesame seeds.

I’d say this is one of my favorite apps but also criminally under rated. Crispy. Crunchy. Shrimpy. Get some!

Assorted veggies + Sliced Chicken Breast + in our light and savory garlic sauce!

Ten years to the day that my dad, Tat Chung “John” Law has passed away.

What a whirlwind. What a time warp. The fastest 10 years of my life! Feels like just yesterday and I miss him every day. 10 years later, I’m still blessed to hear your stories and memories of him and how he touched your lives over the 38 years running this restaurant. His love truly does live on in our hearts and minds and in each bite of food we share here at the Mandarin House.

I felt like such a kid back then, and I still do now, but somehow some way I turn 41 next week and I’ve been running this restaurant for a decade, aka a quarter of my life.

I’ve learned so much about dedication, hard work, and the power of showing up everyday. I’ve learned about the power of friendship, family and community, and how we’re all in this together and how we’re stronger together than we are apart.

So I want to thank you! For all your love and support the last 10 years. For sharing your love, your stories and your time with your families with me and us here at the Mandarin House. I’m honored to be adopted into this wonderful community. And blessed to call this little corner of the world my home.

- Much love and Many thanks!
💙Nelson, the Law family and MHLJ
