ROSEMEAD: SHUTTERING - Last Northern Chinese Dumplings Lunch at JTYH Restaurant
Details
IMPORTANT NOTE: DUE TO TOO MANY LAST-MINUTE RSVP CANCELLATIONS RECENTLY, ANYONE WHO CANCELS WITH LESS THAN 48-HOUR NOTICE, NO SHOWS, OR ARRIVES MORE THAN 10 MINUTES LATE WILL BE PLACED ON A 2-MONTH PROBATION AND WILL NOT BE ABLE TO ATTEND ANY EVENTS DURING THAT PROBATIONARY PERIOD.
JTYH has been at their current location in Rosemead since 2009 and was once written up by Jonathan Gold for the LA Times. One of my favorite dishes here is the hand pulled "cat ears" noodle dish (think Chinese style orrechiette pasta), an item not found at many Northern Chinese restaurants in the LA/OC areas.
Unfortunately, as with many other restaurants these last 2 years due to inflation and costs of goods, the owner of JTYH announced that they will be shuttering for good after dinner service on June 30, 2026. So, we will make one last visit to the restaurant and enjoy the variety of dumplings and noodle dishes they offer.

IMPORTANT EVENT INFO:
• We will meet by the main entrance shortly before 11:00 am.
• Brunch here is expected to be around $45 or more, depending on how much food we order, any drinks you may order, tax, and at least 20% gratuity. Please bring at least $80 in cash (small denominations preferred) to pay for your share of the meal. However, if necessary, I can accept payments via Zelle, Venmo (@lafoodiepanda), or PayPal.
• Family-Style Dining: Dining for this event has been designated as Family-Style. The food bill will be split evenly among all attendees. Attendees will be responsible for paying for their beverages. Please note that flexibility is an important part of family-style dining, and if you want to take a chance to attend, you have to be amenable to what the group/AO will order. You don't have to eat everything that is ordered, but everyone pays equally, whether you eat everything or not. Most of the dishes we order will be at least moderately spicy. If this definition of Family-Style Dining doesn't feel comfortable, this may not be the right type of event for you. In addition, if you have ANY dietary restrictions or ingredients you do not wish to consume, then you may want to skip this event. Ordering dishes modified to fit someone's dietary needs or personal tastes will alter the true flavors of those dishes for the rest of the group.
• PARKING INFO: Parking in the small strip mall where it is located. Street Parking is also available. Be sure to read all signs for any parking restrictions.
