Husband-and-wife owners dish on bringing traditional Chinese fare to South Kingstown.
The story behind South Kingstown restaurant Jayd Bun starts with love.
Now married with a baby daughter, Annie and Joe Parisi met by chance in October of 2014 while each was on vacation in Las Vegas. At the time, he was working as a Pit Boss at Foxwoods and she was a tour guide in Beijing. Soon after, Annie followed her heart and moved from her native China to Connecticut to be with Joe. Very soon after she started to miss the food from her home in Tianjin, China and couldn’t find anything close to it anywhere. So Annie started to cook more and more at home to enjoy the food she ate her entire life. She started learning and creating new recipes to cook. She then traveled back to China and went to a cooking school to learn more. Annie & Joe opened JAYD BUN in October of 2019 and the rest is history.
10/10, If you’re staying in Narragansett and want a break from lobster rolls and whole belly’s, Jayd Bun is an absolute must try. We were lucky enough to stop in and were blown away by the quality of the food and hospitality. Annie and Joe were kind and welcoming. They clearly are extremely passionate about their craft and it’s unmistakable when you try their food. They recommend ordering ahead of time because every dish is crafted to order, we happily waited 45 minutes for our food to come out but if you’re not into waiting defiantly call ahead. Jayd Bun is a small take out shop with a nice patio to sit out on and enjoy your food. As a chef and restaurant owner myself it is very rare to stumble upon a restaurant putting this level of care into every dish they make. Can’t wait to go back and try more of the menu!
This was my first time eating here. We had a friend who recommended the place, so we decided to check it out. We met Joe (one of the owners) and he was more than happy to answers any questions we had about the menu. He also gave us some recommendations and some samples of some of the food! Joe was great and so was the food! Since everything is made fresh and homemade it takes about 20-30 if you don’t call ahead. That was no big deal as we walked over to whalers brewery near by for a beer while we waited. We got the October noodles, pork buns, jayd fusion pancakes. Everything was great. I don’t like spicy but the October noodles were just the right amount to give it flavor but not where your mouth is on fire. So I liked that! Everything was fresh. There’s also plenty of parking which is a plus. We will be returning!
JAYD BUN is the best hidden gem in the world! When you get your food, your 5 senses will be on full display and experience something that you didn't know you were missing. I can honestly say that this is the best chinese food I ever tasted! Noodles are handmade and fresh every day, customer service is impeccable, and food, of course, is A+. Wonton Soup was soulful & a warm hug, Pork Buns was fresh & packed a punch, Pork JinJin was crispy & flavorful, and last but not least, the Jayd Fusion was flaky and a umami bomb. Annie and Joe treated my girlfriend and I like family, and we will be coming back for sure. This power couple deserves a Michelin Star because this food is worth traveling for.
This place is amazing. My mother, wife, and child were all very excited to get some of our local favorite Chinese foods. I had unfortunately not taken the right charge card with me, so need less to say I was quite embarrassed but Jay was quick to say "come back when you can". He wanted to make sure we all ate hot and fresh. This place continues to amaze me and I have been coming here since they opened. Don't sleep on Jayd Bun. I recommend the Beef noodles soup and pork buns. (Chefs kiss) I will continue to eat here, Until I can no longer. Thank you
I wish I could give Jayd Bun 1000 stars!! The dumplings are hands down the best I’ve ever had, the buns are next level good and the spicy noodles can’t be beat!! Everything was so fresh and delicious I can’t wait to go back!!
