    Sang kee is not cheap on maintenance. They pay a lot of money on cleaning, pest control, and necessary services. Probably, the most sanitary restaurant in philly.

    Ok but the Sixers Arena is squarely Mark Squilla’s fault. He had the opportunity to singularly block it as the councilor for that district and chose not to. Absolutely spineless!

      @kellykolb1002 sure sure. It's a private community. You nor I can rent a apt in Chinatown. You can not invite your relatives from overseas to work for your legally operated business and get paid under the table to help start their life here in America. I am not stereotyping. I am voicing my opinion about my personal observation. FYI This is not the only community that does this. It does have impact on the bigger picture. I did not fully express my view. Have at it expressing your own.

      @yummytummy88 2 дні тому

      What is consider give back. They are serving the community by providing a place to buy cooked food? By giving back, you meant giving out free food? If that free food for everyone, then the business will be closed within a week and everyone working their will be out of a job. And if every business is meant to give back, then there will be a ghost town or block as all business can survive by constantly giving out free food. These place are serving affordable food. $10 per meal. What do you expect them to do. They are not multi millions Aires like those professional basket players whom makes $30+ millions a year. Some of these restaurants workers makes $40-$50k a years. Gimme a break...go cry to those millionsaires and billionaires about giving back to the community
