Nom Wah Tea Parlor (Chinese: 南華茶室; Cantonese Yale: Nàahm Wàh Chàhsāt; lit. 'South China Tea House'), opened in 1920, is the oldest continuously running restaurant in the Chinatown of Manhattan in New York City.[1] The restaurant serves Hong Kong style dim-sum and is currently located at 13 Doyers Street in Manhattan.[2]

History

The restaurant first opened in Manhattan, Chinatown at 15 Doyers Street and moved to 13 Doyers in 1968.[3] The original owners of Nom Wah are unknown. Starting in the 1940s Nom Wah was operated by Ed and May Choy who primarily ran the business as a bakery. In 1950 the Choy's 16-year old nephew, Wally Tang, immigrated to New York and began working at the bakery. In 1976, Wally Tang purchased the restaurant.[4] In 2010 the restaurant was purchased by Wilson Tang, a former investment banker and Wally Tang's nephew.[5] Wilson Tang transitioned the restaurant from a traditional dim sum restaurant utilizing metal carts to a made-to-order style with a menu.[3]

The restaurant was featured as a location of a scene in the 2014 film The Amazing Spider-Man 2. [6]

In 2015 the Met Gala pre-party was held at the restaurant.[7]

In 2017, the baogel, a hybrid between a bagel and a cha siu bao was created at Nom Wah Tea Parlor.[8]

Nom Wah also has locations in Philadelphia, Shenzhen, China and Nolita.[9]

In October 2020, Wilson Tang published 'The Nom Wah Cookbook: Recipes and Stories from 100 Years at New York City's Iconic Dim Sum Restaurant'. [10]
