    Pan fried dumplings crab and pork and mushroom and vegetables

    Tried this place in Flushing on a Thursday. I got the crab and pork and the vegetarian dumplings. Both were very good. They had a good amount of filling. The skin was inconsistent on each dumpling but the majority had a nice thin skin without breakage and leaking. Some had a little thicker bottom. Great flavor and not overly salted. Pricing was 8 for $10. I'll try some of the others next time.

    This wasn't even on our food itinerary but we walked by and the worker was very convincing. And honestly, the sausages and pan fried dumplings looked pretty good through the window. There's a variety of fillings and types of dumplings but we wanted to just try what they're named after. Cash only! Since spicy and non-spicy were the same price, we were able to mix and choose within a set of 5 for $7. One of them has black sesame seeds on the top so you can differentiate spicy and non-spicy but I forgot which one it was. The spicy was pretty spicy, so if you're sensitive, make sure to get non-spicy. With each order, you'll also get a small sauce cup with black vinegar but it wasn't enough for 5 dumplings. The pan fried dumplings were decently big with a good ratio of meat filling to the fluffy outer layer. We also ordered 2 Taiwanese sausages for $5. And again, you can choose spicy or non-spicy. The spicy version is just the same sausage but covered with a spicy powder. The sausages themselves were thick and slightly sweet...just as expected for Taiwanese sausages. I think we got everything for a good value and we weren't expecting it to taste as good as it did. Nothing to go out of your way for though but I recommend stopping by if you're in the area.

    Beef bun

    When walking in Flushing, you may have walked by this street stall a couple times. Each time I walked by, it looked delicious, so I had to try it once. I got the beef bun and it was delicious. The outside was so crispy, there was so much beef in the bun, and it was super juicy. The woman working here was super kind and warned me when eating the bun as it may drip a lot and gave me TONS of napkins to ensure I didn't get it on my clothes. It was so delicious, and I would definitely stop by again to try their other bites.

    This place wasn't that great! I got the deep fried chinese fried cruller(youtiao) and it was awful. The dough wasn't hard and chewy. Not crispy and soft. I ended up giving it away to homeless people who asked me for food on the subway. I got the soy milk next door and that was yummy.

    Okay!!! The pan-fried pork buns were very yum! I loved the vinegar-soy sauce that came with it. I poured some into the bun once I took a bite! Service is nice and very quick. The buns come warm; eat them while they're fresh, even if that means you're standing on the street! Also this is the stall right next to the Tiger Sugar boba.

    This seemed like a good spot to get Shanghai pork buns. The lady was so aggressive. I got intimidated because my Mandarin Chinese is not so great. I didn't want to order 6, but she kept insisting. I was finally able to tell her that I only wanted to order 4, and I wanted it spicy. The only spicy part was a spicy seasoning powder. It's pretty good as a snack since it's quick. There wasn't really a line. She did give me two forks and napkins.

    This place served the juiciest pan fried dumplings I've ever had. The juice was falling out of the dumpling after every bite. The dumpling was crispy as well.

    Right by the 7 subway station. Easy to go meal. The dough was thick and semi chewy. The filling inside can be done better- need more filling compared to the thick dough. There's juice inside the dumplings so need to be cautious when in taking. Staff was friendly and she just packed the dumplings without any consideration of what I've asked for. But nonetheless, she wasn't rude but accompanied my order. Ambiance is not there since it's just a storefront that packs the items at the spot. Overall, not sure if it's because I ate it mid temperature, it was underwhelming. I don't think I would come back since it wasn't mind blowing. It's mid 3/5

    Buns and taiwanese sausages. Sausages are really fatty
    Suri K.

    Make sure to give EXACT amount in cash for the precise amount of buns you asked for, because the ladies that work there will try to take advantage of you if you don't speak Chinese and add additional items to your order and then change you for it. The food is fine, there's no difference in taste between the pork bao and the crab bao, so save your money and just get the pork.

    Eggplant in garlic sauce

    It's located right when you get off the 7 train. It's open early in the morning for breakfast. They are always busy, but the line moves quickly. I stopped by in my way home from work and pick up some pan friend pork buns and a small container of eggplant. Their prices for 4 pan fried buns are more than I've seen in Flushing. The bread for the buns were pretty dry. They have a pork and crabmeat pan friend bun I didn't try. I like their eggplant in garlic sauce. I would com back to get the eggplant and skip the buns.

    Taiwanese Sausage
    Richard C.

    4.5 stars. I walked by here multiple times on the way to another place I wanted to try and every time I pass by it, I always get something. They display the food and it always looks really tempting and I could never control myself. I only got pictures of the pan fried buns and taiwanese sausage, but I also tried their pan fried dumplings, deep fried chinese donut, and egg and chive pancake. Everything was always really tasty and I would highly recommend trying this place out. The price was pretty good since it's street food, so definitely try it out if you walk by it.

    This is one of those spots you have to visit if you're doing a street food crawl. The pan fried buns and dumplings are so good. The ladies behind the glass are quick and nice. They even gave us a free soy bean milk drink. It was sugar free so I didn't really enjoy it but it was kind of them to offer it. The food is purely amazing. A must try if you're looking for a super quick bite.

    If you're waiting for the bus on Roosevelt Ave to go to La Guardia, this place is great to pick up something on the go to enjoy on your flight home. I had the pan-fried pork dumplings, and Taiwanese sausage on a stick, and they were delicious! The place can be hard to find since you can't search for it on Google Maps, and the name of the place is not on the storefront in English.

    The place has been in business for a long time The food is really good and the amount of food…read moreserved is pretty good. The service is good. HIGHLY RECOMMEND

    Cuisine: 6 Service: 7…read moreDecor: 4 Value: 7 I have not been here in a long time. Maybe because the prices are no longer considered cheap eats. Or maybe because my taste buds have evolved over the years. Or maybe it's just not as good as it used to be. The answer is maybe all three and somewhere in the middle. I have never came here, or any other Latino-Chinese restaurants in NYC, for service or decor, so let's set that aside. The value is still somewhat there, but the food did not hit that nostalgic note I was looking for. I wanted to get the Fried Pork Chops (Chuletas De Cerdo Frita), but our server suggested the "juicier" Broiled Pork Chops (Chuletas De Credo Asada) instead. Sorry to report, if that's juicy, then how dry is the fried pork chops? I shutter at the thought. It was also under seasoned. I substituted the House Fried Rice for my side at an $4.50 additional fee. It was just okay and not worth the upgrade. Boneless Crispy Fried Chicken (Chicharron De Pollo) was also a disappointment. The batter was more hard than crispy, but the idea that boneless dark meat isn't more juicy simply tells me that the chef over fried the pieces. It came with Fried sweet plantains, which could have been a but more ripe but not bad. I'm not sure how I feel about the Beef Stew (Carne Guisada), which had relatively tender meat, but the sauce was so weak and lacked any real flavor. The black beans and white rice that came with it was decent. What might bring me back to this restaurant sooner rather than later was the Shrimp Egg Foo Young (foo Young Con Camarones). I felt that the eggs were cooked extremely well, but the star of the show was that delicious brown sauce full of umami. Having this over white or fried rice made this meal much more acceptable. I'm not sure when I'll have another craving for this type of food. If I do, I'll definitely get the egg foo young again. However, the other dishes were misses for me, so maybe I'll try the Fried Pork Chops and Shredded Beef in Tomato SayceRopa Vieja.

    Food is good, quiet and clean…read more Service is impeccable. My fiance and I drink water like fish. Our glasses were never empty. Warning to all with a pineapple allergy like me: do not eat the duck sauce. If you like spicy ask for hot mustard instead. Orange chicken was crispy and flavorful. I did not find it spicy, but my spice tolerance is very high. My fiance had the chicken with broccoli and it looked amazing. Try the cold noodles. They are chewy and delicious. For me the fried dumplings were good, but not great. Worth a try but nothing to rave over.

    The menu here is split into two sections, classic American Chinese take out and Sichuan cooking…read more Seems to be a fairly popular take out spot, as they were fulfilling many delivery orders while I was there, but the interior is comfortable and elegantly decorated unlike a standard take out only spot. I ordered the cured pork with garlic shoots and dry fried green beans. The cured pork was quite salty, and paired well with the buttery, tender leeks it was cooked with. The dish was not overly oily, and was pleasant over white rice. I enjoyed the chewiness of the pork which allowed you to experience the complex flavor. The green beans were well fried, with characteristic texture signature to this dish. The seasoning was very well balanced and not overpowering to the natural sweetness of the green beans. I would recommend either dish. They were both slightly toned down iterations when compared to the times I've eaten these dishes at other Sichuan restaurants in flushing, but still well seasoned and well cooked. The service was very warm and friendly, and many other customers seemed to be returning regulars.
