Support the independent voice of Denver and help keep the future of Westword free.
Garhing, the honest-to-Jesus Chinese restaurant at 1048 South Federal Boulevard that took over the space formerly belonging to JJ Chinese Seafood Restaurant, another honest-to-Jesus Chinese chow house that relocated to 2500 West Alameda, is shuttered. No more deep-fried pork intestines, bamboo fungus, Cantonese-style porridge or mo po tofu. According to a hand-written sign posted in the window, the joint is closed for remodeling until next month, at which time it'll reopen as Hong Kong Barbecue, switching out chop sticks and noodles for two-pronged forks and Hong Kong-style hot dogs.
Keep Westword Free... Since we started Westword, it has been defined as the free, independent voice of Denver, and we would like to keep it that way. Offering our readers free access to incisive coverage of local news, food and culture. Producing stories on everything from political scandals to the hottest new bands, with gutsy reporting, stylish writing, and staffers who've won everything from the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi feature-writing award to the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism. But with local journalism's existence under siege and advertising revenue setbacks having a larger impact, it is important now more than ever for us to rally support behind funding our local journalism. You can help by participating in our "I Support" membership program, allowing us to keep covering Denver with no paywalls.
