Nothing wrong with Xie Xie, except a lot of non-Mandarin speaking people pronounce it wrong. :P
WOuld you rather it be “welcome”? Huan Ying in Mand or Foon Ying in Cant. At least Xie Xie doesn’t sound like a chinese restaurant. If anything, the XX might want me to see if there’s a chinese version of the “Most Interesting Man in the World.” Dos Equis. lol.

The cheapskate in me knows that overpriced sandwiches just won’t do. Maybe a once in a blue moon like street meat is too nauseating type of day. Haha.

I agree about the looks of things, Zach, and from what I was told today, this week isn't in the cards.

@chris – I thought the same thing about Num Pang, but then *loved* it. That’s why I’m holding out a little bit of hope…

eh, at least they didnt name it, ‘mh goi’.

I have very low expectations for this place… hyped up opening, Hells Kitchen location, and relatively expensive sandwiches? Sounds like a disaster waiting to happen.

Xie Xie is the goofiest name for an eatery. “Thank You” in Chinese is not a title for a business.
