“We are open 365 days a year,” Gordon said. “Part of owning a Chinese restaurant is that we are open and accessible for people. So the question of when we actually have our holidays, and Christmas in particular, we make it work. For example, today I’m going to my in-laws for Christmas dinner, so we kind of adjust. For the gifts with the grandchildren, my dad will come home after we close after 10 p.m. or midnight [on Christmas Eve] and then the kids, because they’re excited, will open gifts then. Or we’ll do it early in the morning before the restaurant opens.”
