It's like a soup dumpling's fluffy bun cousin, with each one filled with a juicy pork and savory broth. 6 PC. SHENG JIAN BAO - 9.99 These were made to order, freshly pan-fried alongside at least 50 other buns. They're pretty small, maybe two to three bites each, but they come out piping hot, which is when they're best eaten. The skin was thin but held up well to the filling and broth without any spillage issues. The pork filling was so juicy, and the broth was sweet and rich with pork flavor. My only complaint was that the top part of the bun was a bit stale rather than fluffy. Besides that, these were incredibly delicious. If we weren't on a food crawl, I definitely could have eaten a whole plate of these on my own, if not more. This spot was easily one of my favorite stalls of the entire crawl, and I can definitely see why people love it so much. 8/16/2026 Flushing Food Crawl #7 of 11

On one hand, it's knowing how to order and then more importantly, knowing what to order. Mala Siblings (觉世双椒麻辣香锅) is really more than meats the eye (#1) kind of place. A lot of folks will see Kwafood Fried Skewer (#2), but the key is to walk past the skewer display and discover a separate business on the inside. What one will find is Sichuan style street food, which features a customizable dry hot pot (麻辣香鍋) with fried skewers and almost next-to-zero service. It is open late and has a decent amount of seating, especially between 2-3AM. The format is simple: Grab a bowl and begin choosing from the open fridge for all the meats, fishballs, seafood, and vegetables. Drinks are usually on the top shelf. Once assembled with a proper spice level, the meal is whipped together by the staff, and served on a tray. It doesn't come cheap at $20 a pound, but the other spots are either closed or too far away to consider any alternative. While the food isn't mind blowing, this is worthy in a pinch. Dry hot pot is usually fun, but folks can also enjoy their selection with soup if they please. The spice levels are from 1-5 and anyone who can tolerate the latter half are serious spice lords. This is a very decent no frills, late night eatery that is deserves a look from the Roosevelt Ave crowd. __________ (#1) Not a Transformers reference. Just a badly utilized pun.

Everything was flavorful except for a few veggies like bok choy & cauliflower which were too bland. They provide a bowl of rice & soda for free as well.

We got the ginger milk pudding. Do think it's a bit pricey ($10) since it's an easy dessert to make but I guess it's all the theatrics. They pour the dessert in front of you and put a sand glass on top. Once sand glass is done, so is the dessert and you can even rest a spoon on top. The dessert is very smooth, barely a solid, and its ginger taste is very strong- which I like. Strong ginger but pairs well with the milk and good amount of sugar. It is a bit spicy but I like it this way. They do have a lot of other desserts as well as savory items on the menu. Intrigued by their savory menu and will definitely come back to try them next time.

I tried the durian mango coconut pudding, the taro with mochi dessert, and the ginger pudding and…read morethey were all bangers! Flavor profiles were hitting in all directions I didn't know which one to pick as my favorite! Durian mango coconut pudding - Durian wasn't overpowering at all and the mango shined in this dessert. The mango was nice and sweet, yet tart, soft and not at all unripe. The durian bits were creamy and custard-y, while the coconut pudding served as the perfect base for the dessert. Light and smooth Taro with mochi dessert- This was a taro sweet soup and had the consistency as black sesame soup. The taro was potent and the aroma was very prominent. The mochi was nice and soft, yet chewy. I was not expecting to like this one as much as I did. Ginger pudding - Utterly delicious. The ginger flavor and taste was insanely strong and the pudding was jiggly soft. Not too sweet and almost tasted spicy in a sense from the ginger. Super solid pudding. I'd come back just to get this again honestly.

When you shop and buy $50 bucks of products at Chang Jiang Supermarket within 90 minutes you get parking for free. Purchased $25 dollars and overstay 90 minutes. My parking fee was $10 bucks. Great deal compared to parking at other lots that can cost $12-$16. Definitely, the aisles were well maintained here. We shopped for papaya and staff was picking up the wrappers and sweeping the floor. Lots of sales when it comes to shopping for vegetables. Fruits are fresh and well packaged. Busy shopping here and lines get long at the cash register however staff is very efficient and moves quickly. Will be back again.

As Flushing landscape continues to change and businesses constantly evolve, one of the few places…read morewho have remained an old reliable for me has been Kor Wor Tong. Their selection of dried fruits / candies have been a better post dinner snack than most of the lackluster dessert places in the hood. Nestled along Roosevelt between Prince and Main, it is a little space that often gets lost in the jungle of noodle shops, vitamin stores, salons, and bakeries. If you're not looking for it, it's way too easy place to miss. Once inside, it's all Chinese from there. I have neither seen any of the ladies who work here speak English nor any English signs to indicate what kinds of dried goods are what. Even though I have no idea how good their English is, it also never hurts to be with a Mando / Canto speaker either. I've purchased my fair share of tea leaves here, in addition to the occasional sack of dried plums. Prices are never an issue and it seems their selection is getting better. But I can't stay in here too long during summertime. Something about the absence of an air conditioner with the smells from all of the "herbs" in here make for a unbearably good time.

Hot pot ingredients available are quite extensive, similar to other purely hot pot places I've been to so it's solid variety for $40. They also of course have a sauce station. Cooked foods includes lots of lobster - fried, steamed, lobster fried rice, etc. Pretty cool. I liked that the steamed lobster was just steamed with no salt or anything, so I was able to give some to my very young kiddo. Service was alright. They were kind and took away our used plates quickly, but they didn't refill our hot pot quick enough and the pot started burning and it smelled very very burnt for a few minutes. We were worried the fire alarm would go off tbh. Something very similar happened a couple tables over. For dinner service, they offer the mini tubs of Haagen Dazs ice cream. For lunch, they only offer regular scooped ice cream, but the chocolate ice cream they gave us was delicious. Place was spacious with lots of seating, they have several private rooms as well ranging from 10-20 people. The bathroom was in very poor condition though, like leaking toilets, broken doors, etc. Bathroom definitely needs an upgrade or just fixing.

Service was pretty good, they came frequently to clean our plates and bring fresh ones. For 4 people, it came out to around $300 after tip on a Friday night. I know weekend pricing is a bit more.

There's no shortage of Asian supermarkets in NYC, especially in Flushing. Customers seeking Chinese…read moregroceries are luckily spoilt for choice compared to most of the country. DC Market (德昌DeChang in Chinese) is one of many places to shop, and they specialize in meat and takeout meals. This location is similar in size to their Chinatown location, though Flushing has more of a rectangular layout in contrast to the long narrow layout in Ctown. Their butcher counter is pretty much unparalleled compared to other Asian supermarkets with the exception of maybe large format Hmarts. DC carries a wide breadth of edible animal products both au naturel and marinated, including more familiar meats such as pork chops, short rib, flank steak, sea bass, running the gamut to less commonly appreciated though edible parts like frog legs, pork lung and hocks, beef tongue, whelk. Marinated specialties like tangerine peel minced beef and pork ribs in pickled plum sauce caught my attention, among many others. The second largest section is the ready-to-eat food section, with items pre-portioned in takeout containers, priced by the container. This area is composed of several counters with a wide selection of steamed, deep-fried, baked, sautéed and stewed dishes, all categories covered--vegetables, meats, carbs, savory and sweet--food items for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Overall food quality is not quite on par with good restaurants as some other reviews mention, though not too bad if you're looking for a quick simple meal. Aside from aforementioned meat, some seafood, and takeout, they have a suitable breadth of fresh produce, refrigerated/chilled, dried and frozen foods. What you don't find too much here are packaged snacks and processed foods, which I suppose is a good thing.
