After seeing a precipitous decline in restaurants' business all throughout Manhattan's Chinatown and witnessing the xenophobic bullying of Asian senior citizens, Kopitiam's Moonlynn Tsai decided to take a stand for her community. Heart of Dinner, an organization Moonlynn co-founded, brings comfort to seniors in Chinatown by lovingly delivering meals and pantry staples to a homebound population especially vulnerable to COVID-19. Hear what Moonlynn is cooking, who she's collaborating with and how she ultimately intends to keep Kopitiam, and Chinatown, going in the face of both racism and a pandemic.
