Marge, there's no other possible reason. This is a restaurant that did gangbusters business on weekends up until the point of the beginning of the Iraq conflict and the SARS crisis and was by any measure one of the best Asian restaurants in Northern NJ, given the ratings in reviews done by your current and former publication.

Several of the other prominent Chinese restaurants in the area are affected. However China 46 has the distinction of being one of the few that attracted a very strong Asian clientele. I beleive this is precisely why China 46 is suffering --because of fears within the NJ Asian community of eating in restaurants that may employ recent people "off the boat" from China, it doesnt matter if these fears are substantive or otherwise. An almost internal discrimination, if you will.
