Congee Village Hijinks

February 11, 2003 It was cold last week and we wanted to order in Chinese food. Where better to order from, we reasoned, than LES landmark Congee Village (Allen @ Delancey/Broome), a porridge heaven the Village Voice termed "New York's best all-around Chinese restaurant." Alas, we couldn't find a menu -- but we did have our cable modem fired up. Do they have a website? Oh yes! And it's not just any website, but a flash paradise of swirling leaves, resonant gongs, chill tunes, and interactive menus. We surfed to our heart's content before realizing the site lacked only one thing... the phone number. [Postscript: later, much later (as in, actually, this morning), we found the phone number way back on the 'select html/flash' homepage. It wouldn't have mattered: we tracked down the digits from the friendly folks at Sprint PCS only to learn that CV wasn't delivering at all last week because of Chinese New Year's.]

Anyone know what happened to thier website? It's not up anymore...
