Re: Where can i find great chinese food?

yeah, I've been asking chinese co-workers that question for years....

My conclusion is chinatown, nyc... nothing east of there, unless there's a mini-chinatown somewhere in queens. definitely nothing impressive that is local to us.

I think the problem is that most chinese families cook their own food... so restaurants cater to non-chinese tastes.

You wont be dissapointed! when we first moved into our apartment over there, that was our mission....to find the best chinese and pizza....never did find REALLY good pizza though...had to travel for it even though everyone said that Little Vincent's was the best, I didnt think soChat Icon which made us eat a lot more chinese food with Chan's right around the corner.

Thats fuuny what you said about Little Vincents. My husband and I heard that it was supposed to be the best pizza around. But we also did not like it.
But we will certainly check out Chans. I am suprised we never heard of it since we used to live just off Terry road. Oh well it's never too late Chat Icon Thanks for the recomendations everyoneChat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

I loved that place....until I found a piece of hair in the bottom of my chicken and string beans...I refused to let DH get food from there.

Re: Where can i find great chinese food?

I must be in the minority, I don't like Chan's at all except for the cream cheese wontons. I think Dah Lee on the corner of Church and Ronkonkoma, Ave is better.

To the OP Lotus East in St. James is very good

I'm with you, I never cared for Chan's.
