Ashland Retiree Luncheon - Wednesday, March 10, 2010

We will have our Quarterly Business Luncheon at YAO Restaurant & Bar on Westheimer. We will cover club activities for the coming months.

Despite the enormous doorways and various photos of Yao playing basketball, the elegant dining room bares little resemblance to most sports-themed eateries. Tables are generously spaced for quiet conversation and décor is understated Asian. The adjacent lounge features a lustrous red and black color palette, ample booths and three big-screen televisions tuned to the latest game. The restaurant, run by Yao's parents (father Yao Zhiyuan and mother Fang Fengdi), serves familiar dishes including Peking duck, General Tso's chicken and Szechuan prawn.
