Bamboo Village coming to Wallingford

  • Post author:

Eagle-eyed Wallyhood Reader Jay W. spotted construction (and a bit of overexuberant hedge-cutting) underway at 49th and Stone Way where Home Realty used to be. A bit of web searching, and he turned up this permit, which authorizes the construction of a “1-story addition to the west of existing comm bldg, interior tenant improvements, establish use as restaurant (Bamboo Village) and occupy all per plan.”

I started Wallyhood back in 2008, right when my son was born, because I realized I had lived in the neighborhood since 1993 and didn't really know my neighbors. I figured writing a blog about what was going on around me would be a good way to meet people and help other people do the same. As the years progressed, those neighbors have picked up the torch and it is now a group effort, which I adore. I moved out of Wallingford for a few years (2020 - 2025), but I'm back, now living with my wife, son and dog (Dillinger) up in Tangletown.

    Interesting! The applicant on the permit is Po Lee, who owns House of Hong. Wouldn’t that be awesome to have something like that in Wallingford?

    Awesome, indeed! On the other hand, I’m still kind of hoping for a Vietnamese restaurant somewhere in the ‘hood. Not to dis Moon Temple, but it would be sweet to have a really good Chinese restaurant here? Maybe one that had dim sum?

    Mr. Po Lee does a good job at the HOUSE OF HONG, but I’d be even more excited if it was “the original” Mr. Hong himself who would be running the new restaurant. This is still an important improvement though.

    Great News!! I drove by this location todayand it’s nearly ready to open, although I can’t find a date when. But, the sign says Dim Sum everyday. Woo Hoo Wallingford !
