Tumbling into the weekend while waving goodbye to a few Shanghai venues…

Over a decade ago, New York Style Pizza opened their first store in the Jing'an Temple metro station. They say foreigners kept them alive in the early years, as pizza hadn't caught on much locally yet. Last month they received a notice to leave in two weeks due to Line 14 development. They knew it was coming though, as for the last few years they could only get six month leases. Indeed, the place got a bit shabby in its final years, but was always an alright stop for a cheap slice by the park. They've now moved just across the street to the food court in 1788 Plaza, and they still have several other shops around town too.
