We are saddened to hear about the passing of Chef Yening "Lupe" Liang. Chef Lupe and his wife Judy opened their restaurant @hopwoola in 1993, and have been a fixture in the Chinatown community ever since. Chef Lupe and Judy were both recently featured in an episode of Broken Bread. We’re keeping his family and friends in our thoughts.

"We live next to the border. Even though it’s there physically, mentally, it’s not, you know what I mean? We’ve grown so accustomed to looking at that thing, those pieces of metal. They’re oxidized and then painted all over. But I don’t know, it’s just not there. We’re breathing the same air, we’re swimming on the same beach, we’re stepping on the same sand, this is the beginning for a lot of people and the end for a lot of people.” - Chef José "Joe" Figueroa On the season finale of Broken Bread, @chefroychoi traveled to Tijuana where he ate street food, visited restaurants, and learned about the city’s cultural diversity. For part of his journey, he was joined by Chef José "Joe" Figueroa of @el.casimiro_ who shared with Roy what it’s like living near the border.
