Two photographers in New York focus their lens on the Chinese American experience with restaurant workers taking center stage. 

Referring to the words printed on Chinese takeout boxes, “Thank You Enjoy”– captures the lives of Chinese restaurant workers.  It features two photographers including curator Katie Salisbury, who is half Chinese, and Louis Chan.

CGTN’s Karina Huber talked to Salisbury about the exhibit.   #ThankYouEnjoy runs through February 11th at Think!Chinatown Community Art Space 384 Broadway, NYC.
