23
00:01:18,920 --> 00:01:23,080
Speaker 1: on the news in Chinatown Hot Woo restaurant. They've got

24
00:01:23,080 --> 00:01:27,280
Speaker 1: this place Broadway in College Street in Chinatown, Hopwoo la

25
00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:30,920
Speaker 1: on Instagram. It's seafood restaurant in Chinatown known for their

26
00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:35,399
Speaker 1: Chinese turkeys and seafood. Anyway, I mean, I gotta get

27
00:01:35,440 --> 00:01:38,080
Speaker 1: it that in a second. But so Kelly you posted

28
00:01:38,120 --> 00:01:41,560
Speaker 1: on Instagram, come eat here because we got to pay

29
00:01:41,560 --> 00:01:46,640
Speaker 1: for our gas bill, right, Yes, definitely. So you've owned

30
00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:50,960
Speaker 1: and operated Hop Wou for over thirty years, and yes,

31
00:01:51,680 --> 00:01:56,000
Speaker 1: we'll tell me about your gas prices now. So usually

32
00:01:56,200 --> 00:01:59,840
Speaker 1: the bill is around five to six thousand a month,

33
00:02:00,520 --> 00:02:05,000
Speaker 1: but this time for January, it was over thirteen thousand.

34
00:02:05,480 --> 00:02:07,280
Speaker 1: I mean that is not in the budget when it

35
00:02:07,320 --> 00:02:14,239
Speaker 1: comes to operating costs. No, that's just unrealistic. So when

36
00:02:14,320 --> 00:02:17,000
Speaker 1: you and your I know your mom's been fundraising, when

37
00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:18,800
Speaker 1: you and the family get together to talk about the business,

38
00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:24,320
Speaker 1: how do you cover that cost? So the gas company

39
00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:28,440
Speaker 1: actually sent a notice saying that prices will increase, but

40
00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:33,040
Speaker 1: we didn't expect this much of an increase, but they

41
00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:36,160
Speaker 1: did contact us saying that they will help us with

42
00:02:36,280 --> 00:02:39,680
Speaker 1: the payments so we could pay it off within the

43
00:02:39,720 --> 00:02:44,119
Speaker 1: next few months. Oh like an increment or something. Yeah,

44
00:02:44,200 --> 00:02:48,480
Speaker 1: but people on top of our newcoming bill, right, yeah,

45
00:02:48,520 --> 00:02:51,919
Speaker 1: it's not going to pile up anyways. But you're also saying, hey,

46
00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:55,440
Speaker 1: please come eat with us, right yeah, let us just

47
00:02:55,600 --> 00:02:58,560
Speaker 1: cover our cost. So please come eat with us. Please

00:02:58,600 --> 00:03:04,040
Speaker 1: come to U. Try the seafood. Try yeah, the Chinese turkey.

49
00:03:04,160 --> 00:03:05,840
Speaker 1: So wait, it's a seafood restaurant, but you have a

50
00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:11,960
Speaker 1: signature turkey dish. Yes, So for Thanksgiving and Christmas, for

51
00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:16,480
Speaker 1: the holidays, we do the turkey meal. Yeah. Yeah, it's

52
00:03:16,600 --> 00:03:20,080
Speaker 1: usually I think seventy five dollars. You get a whole turkey,

53
00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:23,600
Speaker 1: garley fried rice. I've got bucket of gravy. But you

56
00:03:32,639 --> 00:03:35,960

57
00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:40,640
Speaker 1: turkeys back on the menu. Yes, it's not a bad idea.

58
00:03:40,720 --> 00:03:42,320
