Sometimes I feel like I’m the only one who loves Goodies, located on the upper level of the shops on Fulton St. at Gold, which was why I’ve been dismayed to see the gate down every time I’ve walked by for the last couple of weeks. This Chinese restaurant was a transplant from Chinatown in some sort of reverse move that seemed to go unappreciated by the office workers in the Financial District. There’s a sign taped to the window inside the gate saying they’ll reopen soon, but that’s been there for at least two weeks. I’m keeping my fingers crossed since the food there was good, and it’s also one of the only places down here to get dim sum beyond overpriced dumplings.

The Morris Grilled Cheese Truck has been on the streets for a while, but remained outside Midtown Lunch: Downtown radar because they never really parked down here. Last week they made an appearance at the World Financial Center food truck lot and yesterday they were parked in the Financial District and there was no line as people opted for indoor lunch destinations on account of the rain. I stopped by to check out the menu, which you can see after the jump.

There are two new restaurants in the city serving food from the Yunnan region of China, and one of them happens to be in Tribeca. Lotus Blue opened on Reade St. (at W. Broadway) to little fanfare and I initially dismissed it because there wasn’t anything on the dinner menu for $10 or less. When I looked at the lunch menu, though, I was happy to see three items within our cheap budget including a smoked tofu with rice dish and two different kinds of buns. The latter sounded the most intriguing and I think you’ll want to check these out if you work nearby.
