Lhasa is a Tibetan restaurant coming to 1st Avenue



After three years on the southwest corner of First Avenue and 11th Street, Little Tong shut its doors in mid-March. (They did return shortly after for donation-based takeout meals.)

A sign is up now at the space with news of the next tenant — Lhasa, a Tibetan restaurant (thanks to Steven for the photos!) ...



Will update when more details are available about the new venture.

In an Instagram post from March, Simone Tong, Little Tong's chef and owner, cited the coronavirus outbreak as the driving force behind the closure. The Midtown East location remains open.

    Good! It was disappointing to see the one close on Ninth Street between 2nd and 3rd...where it intersects Stuyvesant
