Midtown Lunch

Today is the Chinese New Year. (It also happens to be one year since I visited and ate my way around China!) We planned a dinner tonight for 10 hungry friends in Chinatown; I picked out a menu of scallops, eel, shrimp, whole fish, eggplant, string beans, lamb,  and clams.

Chinatown isn’t the easiest to navigate (hence why I run my Chinatown food tours!), so I’d like to help.

Here are some suggestions for where you can celebrate tonight (and don’t forget to BYO, it is New Year’s after all)

• Spice C– for shaved noodles
• TT Skewer – if you are dining solo or with one other person
• I-Green– if you want frozen yogurt after your soup dumplings
• Xi’an Sizzling Woks- for a different style of Chinese food
• Tasty Place– if you want an authentic environment and to buy groceries after dinner
• and of course, there are always the usual stand bys Nan Zhou, Sang Kee, Sakura Mandarin, and Dim Sum Garden

Where are you eating tonight? Check my Instagram to find out where I picked!
