Jack grew up work ing alongside his family in the restaurant and was taught how to cook by his father, Ping His Yang. “To me, cooking is an art form,” says Jack, who puts as much care into the presentation of the food as he does in its preparation. If cooking is an art form for Jack, his meals are meant to be appreciated by guests with all of their senses. “First, you eat with your eyes, so the food must look appealing, and then with your nose as you inhale the aroma. The final sensation is taste,” he says. And the freshly prepared dishes he serves do not disappoint any of the senses, as noted in the many positive customer reviews one can find online.
Fenton Township is home to 19 beautiful lakes, the crown jewel of which is Lake Fenton. The largest in the area, Lake Fenton is an 845-acre, natural spring-fed lake 90 feet deep. Called Long Lake until 1932, its rich history is beloved by Bonnie Mathis, Fenton Township Supervisor and a longtime riparian. “This lake means everything to me,” she smiles. Bonnie grew up in a home on Lake Fenton, raised two daughters in Fenton Township and now enjoys lake living again with her grandchildren, who will be the fifth-generation to spend their summers on Case’s Island. While Lake Fenton is now surrounded by beautiful homes, Bonnie remembers a time when it was a recreational spot that attracted visitors from all over. She recently spent an afternoon with My City Magazine sharing photographs, fond memories and information she has gathered about the lake’s history.
