Chinatown: Kimmi, an entirely gluten-free restaurant, opened on Wednesday, December 3, from the team behind Tiger Lily Kitchen and TLK by Tigerlily Kitchen, which closed in 2024. The restaurant - which will use products from gluten-free facilities to keep its food celiac-safe - serves dishes like peanut noodles, mango and papaya salad, spicy tuna rice cakes, and grilled pork belly skewers.
