Designing Jade Rabbit— a new fast-casual restaurant that is redefining Chinese American food, was a real bucket list experience, as it enabled us to reimagine a “fast-casual” dining experience paired with our understanding of Chinese Culture. Jade Rabbit, brought to you by James Beard Award-nominated chef Bryant Ng and his wife Kim Luu-Ng are reinterpreting common dishes (such as beef & broccoli) through the lens of Chinese diaspora food around the world.

At Jade Rabbit, you can find everything from scallion garlic cheese toast to orange mango chicken, all with a counter-service setup similar to popular fast-casual eateries like Sweetgreen and Chipotle.

Bryant was named one of Food & Wine’s Best New Chefs in 2012 and has been nominated for a James Beard Award on multiple occasions.
