So, we got Covid-19 going on, had a moderate earthquake five days ago....what else? Well, you all probably know about the fire at China Max...….though it had been a while since we've visited, this still made me quite sad. You see, the first post I ever did, nearly fifteen years ago, was in China Max.
Regardless of how you did or did not enjoy China Max....yes, we've had some not-so-great meals there over the years; you never want to see this happen.
And I understand neighboring businesses like Tasty Pot sustained damage as well.
China Max....may you rise again.
wow that is sad, didn’t know you had an earthquake too...stay safe! take care.

I guess if you have to shut down for repairs, it might as well be during a time when business is slow anyway...

I guess.....but I think they'd preferred to nto have to GFG.

Bummer about the fire at China Max; I had not been there in many years. At our house, we were just talking about Royal Mandarin and their fire a few years ago. I hope China Max will rebound as well.

Yes, I remember the Royal Mandarin fire sandy. Do you believe that was over ten years ago already? Sheesh. Hoping CM can rebuild. Hope you and yours are healthy and doing well.

Misery loves company. Hope they and the surrounding businesses can recover.

China Max was our family's fav spot for get togethers. https://www.hungryones.com/2016/09/china-max/

I hope so too RD...sounds like they're going to make a go of it. Hope all is well.
I'm hoping they will rebuild like they say Soo.

My friend works across the street and alerted me while it was happening. Hope they can rebuild.

Oh, wow. I remember seeing the news on Twitter about the fire as it was happening, but I didn't realize the damage was so extensive. It's gutted. :( I hope they rebuild, too.
