The magazine staff bought their favorite restaurant.

When Canton Village found itself in trouble, Time came to the rescue. Canton Village is the name of a restaurant where a large editorial team from Time Inc. made its mark in the late 1960s. At that time, Time Inc. had many employees who were enchanted by a good Chinese restaurant. For several years, they were regular customers of Canton Village. When the restaurant was sold and the former owners were left without jobs, editor-in-chief Ralph Graves decided to step in and suggested that his colleagues become shareholders and revive the business in a new location.

At first, it was considered a nuisance by the Empire State Building and even involved the construction of a new restaurant, but the efforts paid off.

The food at the restaurant was Cantonese, which at that time was somewhat outdated compared to the Hunan and Sichuan restaurants that were just starting to gain popularity. However, despite this, most reviews claimed that the food was quite tasty. New York Times food critic Craig Claiborne wanted to become an investor, but he was dissuaded, being told that he wouldn't be able to be a shareholder if he was writing reviews. Nevertheless, he was ultimately pleasantly surprised by the quality of the food and service.

Unfortunately, the game only opened a few years after the company dissolved and the restaurant changed locations, and along with it, the main magic - Pearl herself disappeared.
