Mourning 88 Lan Zhou was apparently a bit hasty.

You’ll recall that the beloved Chinatown noodle house departed 144 East Broadway in August after its lease expired. It was news that weighed heavy in the foodie circles, and obits were published all over the web.

Rest easy, though. Looks like ownership wasted no time in scouting a new location. Indeed, if this latest signage at 40 Bowery is to be believed, the business will reopen here next month. 88 Lan Zhou replaces Ken’s Asian Taste, which recently went out of business.

The neon poster alerts customers to the move from East Broadway.
