Used to glom the Yip when I worked int eh Financial district (why are they always adjacent to a back alley?)..... nevermind, don't answer that. I'm in midtown now, (56th and 5th) and although I'll be strolling over to Yips this week I usually go a little further south to 45th (betw 5th and 6th) to Ho Yips for my crap chinese. The Singapore Rice noodle...... yumm, roast pork, chicken, shrimp (sort of) intertwined with slightly curried rice noodles. Similar setup as Yips but I'm not sure about the two "entree" thing.

But the BBQ chicken is enough to keep me comnig back again and again. As many people have said, the BBQ chicken at Yips is amazing and everything else is kind of lousy.

Costs me $7.05 in total, tastes great, I enjoy it, and I rarely want dinner that night because it's filling. Haute cuisine? No. Good stuff (to me at least), done cheap? Yes, and in Manhattan that's a winner in my book. I go to Yips about twice a week, and I always get the same thing: BBQ Chicken, Fried Rice, and a side of hot & sour soup for $1.50.
