The final day for Loong Wah Restaurant on Lemarchant Road is set for Sunday, May 14, marking the end of over 30 years of food service. While the previous owners served North American Chinese food, Wu said she tried to diversify the menu with more authentic Asian dishes. Some of Loong Wah's fusion dishes included their salted cod fried rice and Newfoundland-themed fried rice which included jiggs dinner ingredients. Mei Mei, a frequent diner at Loong Wah, said she's going to miss the food.
