April 11, 2007: Y.H. Printing
This shop is directly opposite Good World Bar, at the end of Orchard Street near Division. This area has always had a special allure for me-- back in 2000, when I was first living in LES, it felt like this wonderful, secret part of Chinatown. Now it's been pretty well colonized by restaurants and cafes, but it still retains some of the flavor that first caught my eye.

i can tell you from experience that the chinese woman who runs this print shop has plenty of that old-school "flavor".
