Local Restauranteurs Debuting “Elevated” Shanghainese Concept

According to a recent report in Orlando Weekly, a new restaurant named Yao’s is soon coming to 15 Alafaya Woods Blvd in Oviedo.

“Look for Yao’s, an “elevated contemporary Shanghainese” concept from siblings George, Eddie and Diane Yiu, and Chris Chen and Phil Nguyen of Viet-Nomz, to open this summer in the old Bento Asian Kitchen space at 15 Alafaya Woods Blvd. in Oviedo,” the report states.

While little else is publically available about the upcoming restaurant, readers can reasonably expect a stellar debut from a team that quickly grew Viet-Nomz to a small and highly popular local chain.

No opening date has been announced.
