"Bringing Maryland’s modern Chinese approach across state lines, Peter Chang and his daughter Lydia set up NiHao in National Landing with an all‑day Sichuan menu centered on small, shareable plates full of peppers and spice, plus a second‑location focus on dim sum and new items like a clay‑pot noodle soup made with Amish chicken from Ovid, NY — expect dan dan noodles, braised eggplant and tofu, steamed and pan‑fried dumplings, and more; Maketto’s Erik Bruner‑Yang is a partner and the Arlington location at 1550 Crystal Drive opens in early April." - Tierney Plumb
