CHINA HOUSE IS THIS WEEKS RESTAURANT OF THE WEEK

March 22, 2021 By Joe Pagano

 

Our Restaurant of the Week is China House, the only Chinese Restaurant in town

The Shi family has been in business at China House in Flat Rock for the past 15 years.  Standing as the only restaurant in Flat Rock serving delicious Chinese cuisine, they are a favorite spot for many of us! Over the past year, they have been able to keep up a steady flow of takeout business during the COVID-19 pandemic.

The team at China House has been committed to remaining open to the public during these difficult times. Their dining room has been closed since March of 2020 and have relied on carryout exclusively, working to ensure the safety of their community. While take-out has always been a major part of their business, the Shi Family has also had reduced employees while they are not open for in-person dining. Community support during this time period is sincerely appreciated by everyone at China House. The next time you are thinking about getting some delicious Chinese takeout, we hope you will order from China House!

WELCOME TO FLAT ROCK

The first Euro-American settlers in Flat Rock were Michael Vreeland and his five grown sons between 1811 and 1820. Michael had been captured by British Rangers during the Revolutionary War and released after American independence.

The family purchased 800 acres (3.2 km2). The town was called the Village of Vreeland until 1838 when the Vreeland family sold off the majority of the land and relinquished control of the area. The Vreeland families built the first grain and lumber mill, having brought the grinding stones from New York.

Descendants of Michael Vreeland still live in the town and attend Flat Rock public schools, being the seventh generation to reside in the town their family founded.
