Well, this just fucking sucks. We can’t express how sad, how dissapointed we are upon hearing the news that Yeching palace in Cleavland Park will soon be permanently closing its doors. Not only is the food fucking delicious, but it has been the venue in which many a deal has been brokered. We were going to make a joke about the Cuban Missile Crisis being solved there, and then we read this in a story from WTOP (and it’s also on the Yeching Palace site:

The Washington Examiner reports that the U.S. intermediaries for the White House and the Soviet Union met there in 1962 to help defuse the Cuban Missile Crisis.

ITS NOT A JOKE BECAUSE THE CUBAN MISSILE CRISIS WAS ACTUALLY SOLVED THERE.

Sigh. We’re going to miss you Yeching Palace. Especially when we’re all over at Josh’s house on Porter and we’re drunk and we really want some chicken lo mein.
