Rice Fun will be hosting a ribbon cutting on Tuesday, November 10, 2020 at 4:00 pm at their newly opened location at 820-A Conover Blvd W in Conover.

To allow as many people as possible to celebrate, while adhering to the current Executive Order, this event will be streamed via Facebook Live on The Chamber of Catawba County’s Facebook page at www.facebook.com/catawbachamber.  It will begin with a brief virtual tour and will culminate outside in front of the business with brief remarks by a Chamber representative, elected official and representatives from the business prior to an official ribbon cutting.  If you would like to go along on the virtual tour, the live stream will begin 10 minutes prior to the scheduled ribbon cutting time.  Plan to tune in live!

Yu Hao Lu or Kevin, as he's known to his friends and customers has been providing delicious meals at Rice Fun for 20 years.  Born in Taiwan, Kevin and his family came to the US when he was 12.  Several years ago, Kevin's family decided to own their own restaurant in the bustling city of Mooresville.  The name Rice Fun was decided upon.  The design of the store allowed customers to see into the kitchen.  With the customers seeing their food prepared in front of their eyes, they began a new concept in fast casual dining-fresh, prepared in the store food using no MSGs or preservatives.  Thus, Rice Fun had an innovative method of preparing traditional Chinese cuisine.  Another signature piece of Rice Fun restaurants is their one-on-one service to each customer.  

During a time when gatherings are difficult and the world is changing, Kevin has opened Rice Fun in Conover to give people in this area a chance to try something new, delicious, and nutritious.  Their mission statement encompasses all their beliefs:  We at Rice Fun strive for the happiness and well-being of our customers and our Team Members.  We do this by providing the best quality food for a good price and a safe, clean, and welcoming environment for our customers and Team Members.  We believe that Rice Fun is only as good as the treatment of our customers and fellow Team Members.

Rice Fun in Conover is open every day from 11:00 am to 9:00 pm.  Dine-in, take out, on-line ordering, and catering are available.  The menu includes vegetarian and gluten free options.

**Per the executive order, up to 50 guests can be hosted outdoors and 25 guests or the business occupancy limits can be hosted indoors.  All attendees will be required to wear face coverings and socially distance.
