yeah, i had the conversation with the lantern place. they were owned by the same people, and in fact when yum yum closed, i called them once and ended up reaching lantern. so in theory it's the same place....<br><br>

I had heard the same big lantern is where the yum yum chef landed, but I've been there twice and taken out and its WAY not as good, plus missing my faves (combo hong kong noodle, five spice chicken, spicy eggplant...)<br>
<br>
Sadness ensues... Please to anyone who discovers the next good place for chinese food in the hood, please please please post it. I haven't found it yet...<br>
It may not exist yet...but I'll keep looking<br>
<br>
Meep!<br>

I really miss yum-yum, their kung pow tofu was the best I've had.<br>
We go over to Big Lantern which has a better fake meat selection, but<br>
their kung pow isn't as good.<br>
I had heard that they were the same people as Yum-Yum.<br>
