It was a lot of fun picking out which stall to order from in this large Asian food court. I chose…read morethis one because they had so many choices for dumplings. My order was for "Pork, Shrimp, & Chive Fried Dumplings". They have a window up where you can watch the assembly line of the making of the dumplings from scratch. A couple of other things raised a concern for me. The lady handling the money at the register would then jump in to help on the assembly line. Sometimes after handling the money she'd put on gloves. Other times she didn't. The other concern was watching the gentleman cooking the orders. He was very linear so he only cooked 1 order at a time. There were 10 orders ahead of me so my wait was 30 minutes. The food was great though. I had 10 potstickers for $12. Plus the dipping sauce was great. It was tangy, sweet, with a very tiny hint of spiciness.

What won me over was being able to see how fresh the dumplings were- that you can see them wrapping them with a good amount of filling inside. I got the pork, shrimp, chive dumplings, and they were so filling! The inside was juicy and tasty, and the dumpling wrapper was thick and chewy. The sauce could've had a bit more flavor personally, like more spice or vinegary tang, but it was still a good complement to the dumplings.

The establishment is fairly new. I didn't realize how long it was around. We orderd and then waited with other customers picking up their orders. Beef Chow Fun was okay and was a first for me to see sesame seeds. The noodles were made good, not enough beef was added in, there was a lot beansprouts and scallions. I personally wanted more meat and have a decent portion of everything in this meal. All payment is accepted, parking is insane and you should park elsewhere less hectic.

Since I was in mood of something spicy, I stopped at this place which is Taiwanese food and had a pretty elegant display of their menu and food choices. The lady at the counter recommended the Beef clay curry, which was basically cubes of beef with a variety of vegetables and came with a side of fried rice and seaweed soup. The rice and the beef were very good as a combination, not as spicy as I wanted, but still very good, however the seaweed soup was a bit questionable as I had no idea what it would taste like and it wasn't what I would have expected. The service is good and for the price it was a a very decent helping.

Yuupduk is my go to place to get tteokbokki (rice cakes in spicy sauce). I believe they are a chain…read morefrom S. Korea, and they are known for their very spicy tteokbokki. The texture of the rice cakes are nice and chewy - more so than other restaurants. I used to get their namesake tteokbokki which can be made to be extra spicy. And when I say spicy, I mean really, really spicy. These days, I've been getting the rosé tteokbokki, which is much less spicy because of the addition of the cream. Unfortunately, they can't seem to make it very spicy (which was the original reason why I craved tteokbokki from here specifically), but the rosé tteokbokki is addictive in its own way. I always add an extra order of the sausage; they have a good snap and the flavor complements the tteokbokki very well. I've had the other dishes here before - the udon, mini kimbap, tuna rice balls, tempura, donkatsu, etc. Everything is pretty well done. The only dish that I do not like from here is the soondae, which is unfortunate because tteokbokki and soondae is such a classic Korean bunsik combo. But alas, I would not recommend getting that dish here. The flavor and the texture of the dish is not up to par with their other menu items.

I love Yupdduk's tteokbokki so I came again to introduce my friend to their food (I come to Yupdduk…read moreoften whenever I'm having a craving for tteokbokki haha). Please refer to my previous review for more thoughts. We came right at opening at 11:30 am on a Saturday and shared a large rose tteokbokki that was delicious as always. The rice cakes are tender and chewy & the sauce is as addictive as usual with its balance of savory umami, sweetness, and spice. I haven't had the large size tteokbokki in awhile as I usually come alone & get the small size but the large size is a great option for when you eat with someone else. My friend really liked the tteokbokki as well, I'm glad to convert another person to be a Yupdduk fan ;) We also ordered the kimari/gimmari/deep fried seaweed rolls filled with glass noodles. It's my first time having this dish and this was also very tasty. The glass noodles inside are well seasoned and savory & the deep fried seaweed is nice and crispy. It's a great appetizer to pair with tteokbokki! The music they play is always nice and chill & usually the restaurant isn't very crowded. There's wifi as well! It's a very casual place and great place to grab food with friends. I once again, highly recommend Yupdduk!

Considering how fast other stalls have disappeared due to poor business, I'd say they're probably doing pretty well! I LOVE their liang pi - way better than Xi'an Famous Foods. The noodles aren't too rubbery, the sauce isn't too oily, and it coats the noodle perfectly. It's served just slightly warmed here. Watch that you're not eating it near beloved articles of clothing because it gets... splashy. Their fu qi fei pian is very good - but nearly double the price of other Flushing vendors selling the same thing. And the last time we bought some, there were only one or two slices of beef in the whole container. Way to annoy your customers! I can never help thinking that their name means "fragrant guava" (because that's what it means in my native language), but it's actually a transliteration of Shambala, the Buddhist holy land (ie. Shangri-La).

It was a little hard and could be softer. Otherwise the overall dish was very filling and good. Need to try their kimchi fried rice and soondubu next!
