It is with great sadness for us to say my dad, Chef “Lupe” Yening Liang, has passed away. He always did his best to provide for his wife, daughters, family, friends, & community. We miss him so much but hope he’s at peace & having tea with his late parents and brothers. We have lost a legend but hope to keep his legacy alive through his food & Hop Woo.

We’ve started a GoFundMe to help with his arrangements. Anything would be appreciated. Even if it’s just having a meal at Hop Woo. Thank you.

With very heavy hearts, 
Judy, Kelly, & Mary

Judy will keep Hop Woo going until we find the right buyer or she’s ready to retire. Please continue to support us in Chinatown
