Mantou Chinese Sandwiches Is Now Open
Got this message in the old ML Inbox this morning from Lunch’er Mark:
“A sign in the window of Mantou (on 53rd btw. 2+3rd) says they will be open “the week of July 13″. The menu is intriguing–a combo box is $9.95 and comes with choice of two sandwiches, green salad and shrimp chips. The sandwiches must be small because they offer two in a combo and a la carte prices range from $2.95 to $4.95. Sandwich choices include pork bun, short rib with kimchi, spicy pork, mackerel, chicken meatball with chinese bbq sauce and angus beef with spicy sambal. Also, they offer kimchi as a side order.”
But when he walked by at lunchtime they were already serving food…
Surprising development. I went to Mantao after I picked up my lunch this afternoon to take a picture of the sign and it turns out they’re open! there were about 12-15 people mulling around waiting for their food, so I’m thinking Mantao is having some service issues today. But I’ll be sure to get there early on Monday.
Awesome news… early adopters- let us know how it is.

I’ve only eaten at province when it was in tribeca but the menu sounds the exact same and it was quite good; the sandwiches are low-priced but pretty filling; 2 will definitely get you nice for lunch, I used to order 3 when I was real hungry but they didn’t have that salad + chip add-on (which is a great idea). will def. check it out.

I just got mine.. but before I try it.. just to warn everyone.. they’re having a 1st day “discount”… i’m not sure what you’re supposed to say.. but everyone after me go the discount.. (20%).. i think if you just ask for the 1st day discount, they’ll give it to you… otherwise, I think i heard people say “Ramon”(??) not sure…
