The Keith Lee Effect: D.C. Area Restaurants Sell Out After TikTok Critic’s Visits | Eater DC

"I gave the lemongrass chicken bowl an 8.5 out of 10 for its flavorful, juicy chicken with pickled vegetables, peanuts, and cucumber over white rice; the Hawaiian-ish bowl scored a 7.5, and a bite with the cucumber kimchi landed at about an 8.2. After my visit business spiked — the owner said revenue jumped 300% over an already-strong month and they fully sold out on Sunday — and I left $1,000 plus $2,000 to pay for future customers after hearing about DoorDash theft. The owner has been restocking daily and is asking customers to order online while they try to keep supplies stocked." - Emily Venezky
