japanese uniform is probably because of the beef teriyaki skewer, but who cares what they wear, the quality is the most important. Try it and liked it, hope he can give me the recipe next time.

i just try the skewers the other day and it was delicious, never had i taste such flavor in a tiny stick. i try to at last pass by there once a week due to my busy skewer, and the corn, its yummy. Anyone who goes down to chinatown, please have a try , it is well worth it.

The mini cake stall has been shutdown for so long and now it’s a little strange that it’s been replaced by a meat vendor. Good mini cakes are so hard to come by. There’s one on Grand Street and a supermarket that sells them as well, but the quality is never the kind I had when I had them in HK. Just not authentic…

@Yvo:

I believe in cantonese, corn is called: Sok-mai.

AL@1PP – Yes the cheap dumpling joint is still there on Mosco.. it was actually just mentioned in a Time Out New York piece.

I’d say it’s not the best dumpling place but they still have 5 for $1.

I’ve passed this stand a few times now….struck me as a bit odd. A cook dressed in a Japanese style outfit selling Mexican style corn in CHINAtown?

Yu mi? I’m sitting here trying to think of the word for corn in Cantonese and failing miserable. I think my mom calls it… Corn.

Haha… anyways. Daniel, I wanted to thank you for the Capri Caffe rec, I went there on Wednesday and it was awesome. Will be posting soon with credit to you (and Zach)… grazie ;)
