Fort Lauderdale lost a longtime favorite for Chinese food last November, after Christina and Jason Huynh, owners of Christina Wan’s, announced their retirement and the closure of that restaurant.
The loss was felt so deeply that something finally had to be done about it. And something has been done: now, by popular demand, Christina Wan’s will make a return in its original home, says recent coverage by the South Florida Sun-Sentinel.
“Wan’s — the restaurant’s simplified new name — will be a reboot of the 28-year-old restaurant when it reopens in the same location sometime this spring, led by fourth-generation owners Alex Kuk (who runs next-door Temple Street Eatery) and Courtney Van Leeuwaarde, daughter of Christina Wan’s namesake Christina Huynh,” expounded coverage by the Miami Herald.
What Now reached out to Alex Kuk on Thursday to inquire about plans for the opening, specifically regarding the timeline for reopening and any possible updates to the menu. Kuk was not immediately for comment, but What Now is awaiting more information.
The Christina Wan’s Instagram page predicts a reopening in Spring 2025. You can keep up with the news by following @christinawans.
