Summary
A fiery legal storm is brewing around Danny Cheng, owner of Jefferson City’s Dragon Kitchen, after accusations surfaced that he hired undocumented workers and owes them nearly a million dollars in back pay. Investigations reveal cash payments, missing W-2s, and a bizarre “dormitory” setup where workers lived rent-free at Cheng’s property. Reports also allege he moved workers across the country—some picked up from border towns—without proper documentation. This fast-developing scandal could reshape the future of the Dragon Kitchen.
