YAO, the modern Cantonese restaurant from the team behind the acclaimed August Gatherings, is celebrating the holiday season with a playful nod to the long-standing tradition of Chinese and Jewish communities coming together during this time of year. YAO is partnering with two iconic New York City institutions, H&H Bagels and Sarge’s Deli, for two unique, limited-time menu collaborations that blend Cantonese flavors with classic Jewish deli fare.

YAO x H&H: Bagel Sandwich Collab (December 16–20, 12–3 PM)
YAO joins forces with H&H Bagels, the legendary bagel shop immortalized on Sex and the City and Seinfeld, to create three fusion bagel sandwiches:

- Alaskan King Crab/Roasted Chicken Bagel – A Crab Rangoon-inspired creation with cream cheese, microgreens, and caviar.
- Truffle Duck Bagel – Peking Duck with cream cheese, mushrooms, microgreens, and a touch of truffle ($23).

The sandwiches will be available for lunch at YAO’s location at 213 Pearl Street, 2nd Floor, from December 16–20.

YAO x Sarge’s Deli: Jewish Holiday Specials (December 22–26, Lunch and Dinner)
For the quintessential “Jewish Christmas,” YAO teams up with Sarge’s Deli, a New York staple for over five decades. The collaboration features an innovative menu melding the best of both traditions, including:

- Sarge’s Matzo Ball with YAO Kabocha Soup ($18)
- Fried Rice w/ Sarge’s Pastrami with onion, string bean ($30)
- Ma Po Tofu w/ Sarge’s Corn Beef with mushrooms ($30)
- Ma Po Tofu with Sarge’s Corned Beef and mushrooms ($30)
- Ox Tongue Stir Fry with asparagus and onions ($32)

The dishes will be offered during lunch and dinner service exclusively at YAO from December 22–26.

These fun and flavorful collaborations are a delicious way to celebrate the holiday spirit while honoring the shared traditions of two diverse cultures. Reservations are highly recommended for both events.
