Nom Wah Tea Parlor is a Chinatown mainstay in New York, celebrating its centennial this year. When Wilson Tang took over as owner and proprietor ten years ago, he breathed new life into the establishment, taking it from bakery to vintage dim sum parlor, opening new locations, and branching out into new forms of customer engagement. Opportunities were endless. And then COVID happened. Wilson talks about what this period has meant for him as a caretaker of a business and its employees, a mentor and investor in other hospitality ventures, and as a parent and model for his children.
