Some elderly ladies might cut the line and shout their order before I can get my order in. This is only because I didn't know which way the line formed. Not a bad price for the amount of food.

Time to try all the Chinese BBQ items: Roast Chicken (Sieu Gai) Salt Baked Chicken Soy Sauce Chicken Roast Duck Flat Roast Duck (Pei-Pa Gnop) Lo Siu Duck Roast Pork Loin (Char Siu) Whole Roast Pig BBQ Ribs Pork Sausage Other assorted pig, chicken, duck parts & innards Once in a while they even have cuttlefish! You can even pre-order a whole suckling pig for that special occasion like a dowry to trade for your fiancée's hand in marriage! (my wife required the trade of a full size roast pig and a few chickens BTW) Whenever I don't feel like cooking, I grab half a roast duck, a pound of char siu and I am set for dinner. If you get the roast chicken, make sure they give you a cup of the 5 spice sauce that is awesome with the white meat.

The Lap Cheong from here is coveted in my family that my grandparents ask me to carry it in massive…read moreamounts across the pacific and home to Hawaii! They're only open Monday through Thursday, and the man working there only speaks Cantonese, and so I've made special NY day trips and had to be coached in how to order just to get my hands on it. The staff is very kind, you can definitely use Google Translate to order, and at ~$8/lb I think it's reasonably priced. I personally don't like any lap cheong, but my family says this is the best place in the country so I guess it's pretty legit :)

Sausages! Sausages! Sausages! Best Chinese sausages! Pork, duck liver, and chicken sausages galore!…read moreIn this cute, no frills sausage shop, my brother and I were greeted right away in Cantonese which we sadly don't understand- we're the wurst! Thankfully, they had an English chart behind us. We split an order of 5 lbs of slightly sweet Cantonese cured pork sausage (lap cheong) between us and I plowed through my half within 2 meals- it's that good! It's freezable, so I'm already plotting my next order, especially the duck liver. A real wiener! ;) NOTES/TIPS: **Steam for 20 minutes or lay it atop freshly cooked rice and cover. Slice to serve. Microwaving is fatal and dries it out- a sausage sin! **For extra zing, pair it with cane or white vinegar. It adds contrast to the richness. You can also put it in fried rice or noodle dishes. **Will add pix next time.

This is a super popular supermarket in Chinatown! My parents took me here often on weekends and…read morealways bought some food before going home. Although I do not come to Chinatown often anymore but when we do, I come with my daughter! This place is split into two parts. One part is like a regular supermarket with limited items like marinated meat and seafood and some pantry stables like noodles. The marinated meats, you buy by pound and you can cook them at home during the week. This is very convenient and takes the prep work out of the way! My personal favorite is the marinated sole. All I have to do is cook rice, steam the fish with ginger, then add scallion oil - weekday dinner is done, just like that! My husband loves the marinated meats, they are delicious and perfect for meal preps. The second part of the place is what Deluxe is famous for - the food market, it is a combination of hot Chinese dishes over rice, stir-fry noodles, bakery, roasted meats, cold marinated meats, and sushi. Now, I must admit that the food items here taste decent and very affordable but do not expect it to be the best. It does the job and feeds the family, especially in this economy! We like the Fried Salt and Pepper Pork Chops and it seems like it is one of the most popular items here as I see them refill it every time I come here. This is a must visit if you're ever in Chinatown! This place is always busy and super crowded, the best time to come is during morning hours before lunch!

Every time I visit NYC I'd stop by here for chat siu and the crispy roast pork since my mom told me…read moreabout this place almost a decade ago and each time it was awesome - a lb of each to go (sometimes an order of duck or chicken as well) with a hot pot of rice at home and some blanched veggies to balance everything out. I wish I've yelped about those great experiences because on this last visit it was unfortunately terrible. If I could give it 0 stars I would but that's not an option kinda terrible. The last time I visited was more than a year 1/2 ago and it seems they've changed their service on the cut meats. Seems like they only have precut chunks which then gets cut down into smaller pieces (?!!). And there were only two cooked chickens hanging (?!!) Well, I wasn't sure and while I was waiting in line for my usual cuts of meat I noticed the meat cutting/chopping lady (we'll call her the chopper) pouring a ladle of sauce on the customer's char siu (?!!). While the guy in front of me ordered his cuts I asked the chopper if I can ask her a question to which she glanced at me and then looked away. No biggie, I'll ask when it's *my turn*. And when it was I asked her in Cantonese: "excuse me, when were the meats grilled? Is it today (this morning) or are they yesterday's cuts from the fridge and I should re-heat?" She gave me a look and replied "if they're not made today when would they've been made?" me: (confused look) I don't know? her: turns her head left to look at the wall "what time is it now? If we didn't roast it this morning what time would we have done so?" me: i don't know which is why i'm asking you? her: OBVIOUSLY it was made today me: you know what i'm not buying anymore. I asked a question and I don't like your attitude (tone). As i walked to the entrance she continued her belittling muttering so i got angry and turned around to state loudly i asked her a simple question but she was rude and condescending to which I can't give me business support to!!

I had plans to go into Manhattan and since I had to pay the congestion pricing I figured I'd make a trip into Chinatown. I was going to order about 5 lbs. of the beef. Some sweet and some spicy. Some for me and some for out of town, former NYer, friends (a purchase of about $170 Ping's missed out on). I called the day before and all day the day of. I couldn't get anyone on the phone. They have a web page, but the only way to contact them was... you guessed it... via phone. I learned from past experience that if you don't order ahead, all you get, if you're lucky, is crumbs. I decided not to waste more time and gas and just skipped the trip downtown.

I bought a 10 pound goose for 7ish a pound. It's a small place oriented lengthwise. On your right is the counter and your left fridges/freezers. Lot of cheap meat and unexpectedly, alligator. A lot of it wasn't labeled or was in Chinese though. Jeff, at cashier, was really helpful in clarifying what anything was. I believe he runs the Instagram page and reached out because he thought I dropped something. I'd come back here for cheap meat, new ingredients, and great service.

There was only one person in front of me when I came on a Saturday morning and my total came out to about $60 with two types of biscuits + 2 lbs of jerky.

When I knew I'd be in New York for…read moretwo days, I made sure I had time to pick up some because fresh jerky is hard to find in Northern California. Malaysia Beef Jerky is a tiny shop located on Mott Street in Chinatown. They have all kinds of jerky - beef, chicken and pork. They are already sliced and you buy them by the weight. I got half pound of chicken and half pound of spicy pork and came out to be $36! Whoa, I had no idea it was that expensive for a pound of jerky! To be fair, they were delicious! It was fresh, good texture, thinly sliced and flavorful. Most importantly, it brought back happy memories of my trip to Malaysia. Service was quick and they do take credit card.
