"Adams was supposed to visit this Chinese vegan restaurant on the Lower East Side late summer of 2022 — but the Department of Transportation beat him to it. The city agency handed the restaurant a cease-and-desist order over its outdoor setup, Lee told Eater, and Adams never showed. “The DOT guys did say how would it look if he ate at our outdoor tables if they weren’t up to code?” says owner Justin Lee, who now has to bring in a contractor “and pay at least $1000” to address the violations. It’s one of the least expensive and only vegan restaurant on the list — that Adams never visited." - Melissa McCart
