It was the day Anthony Bourdain, with film crew in tow, really put&＃160;Xi&＃8217;an Famous Foods&＃160;on the map. That was in 2008.&＃160;A decade later, Wang paid tribute to the chef and television host,&＃160;on the day of Bourdain&＃8217;s suicide. On Friday, Wang, CEO of his family&＃8217;s growing food empire, committed 100 percent of the day&＃8217;s net sales to the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline, raising $73,509.76. On Monday, he thanked patrons and restaurant staffers in an Instagram post for their heartfelt support: &＃8220;We were able to serve almost double the amount of dishes as usual during dinner on Friday 6/8/18, with some stores selling out of items towards the end of the night,&＃8221; wrote the 2016 recipient of the Olin Emerging Leader award. &＃8220;Thank you for helping us with this tribute to our friend.&＃8221; The Huffington Post has&＃160;the full story here. You can find&＃160;The Wall Street Journal&＃160;feature about Bourdain and&＃160;Xi&＃8217;an Famous Foods&＃160;here. At the time of the WSJ feature, Wang had just opened the chain&＃8217;s 10th store. It&＃8217;s since expanded to include&＃160;nine active stores in Manhattan, two in Queens, and one in Brooklyn. Wang is regularly involved in Olin&＃8217;s New York alumni network, participates in the NY Trek with students, and is part of the WashU Asian Alumni Network.
