Kossar’s Bialys - Shame Shame Shame

Cindy — Mon, 10 Nov 2008 04:02:58 +0000

What can I say? Two words: tourist trap. Kossar’s Bialys offers bland, tasteless, cold bialys served up with attitude. It’s definitely not worth the 90 cents you dish out. Don’t think just because there’s a line at this New York “institution” that their bialys and bagels are worth the wait. Their lack of customer service makes their bialys even harder to swallow. How preposterous of me to order two bialys in separate bags? The cashier looked at me like I’ve grown two heads. Well sir, I would like my bialy to go and so would my friend! Next time if I want to be treated like a human being, I need to order a dozen of these tasteless discs of crap.

Cheapest Ice Coffee in Chinatown yet

Kawai — Wed, 29 Oct 2008 01:45:55 +0000

The Cheapest ice coffee in town, can’t beat this bargain and yes it’s drinkable.

Don’t be scared off by the shabby storefront appearance. Inside all the pastry comes fresh out of the oven in the back room.?? The regular ice coffee here is only $1.25, no joke. It’s comparable to a light McDonald ice coffee. Decent size too, 16 oz cup.

Cheapest Hong Kong Cakes in Chinatown

Kawai — Sun, 24 Aug 2008 22:24:08 +0000

The Cheapest “Hong Kong Mini Cakes” in Chinatown, $1 for 20 ping pong size cakes.?? While other vendors sells theirs for $1 for 15 pieces, this cart never change their price after many years. You can find this cart on the corner of Grand and Bowery Street. A great cheap and lite snack on the go.

Back in the day ..

So, remember this? Well, just to let you know, if you ever want pizza in Chinatown, you’re out of luck. Though, if you did want pizza in Chinatown, I’m not sure how I would handle that question. Anyway, the point is, Mosco Pizza has now become this:

Goodbye pizza, hello another dumpling place? We’ll soon discover and keep you posted.

A Chau Deli - Vietnamese sandwiches

Kawai — Tue, 01 Jul 2008 03:49:52 +0000

Pronounced like you’re giving out a sneeze, “A Chau”, the only place in chinatown that just sells authentic Vietnamese sandwiches. A menu of 10 different sandwiches to choose from,??each??costing no more than $3.50, definitely??a great place??for a cheap tasty meal on the go. I typically prefer the classic Vietnamese Cold??Cuts??with Pate Sandwich which consist of P??t??(meat??paste), Vietnamese ham, roasted ground pork, pickled carrots, cucumber, cilantro, and mayo on a toasted French baguette. The sandwich hit the spot and filled me up nicely.

Chinatown Classic?

Well this can be considered in Chinatown a staple restaurant serving good quality food, and good service. Through the years restaurants have successfully imitated their style of service and appearance, but many have failed. I would firmly believe that it’s the quality of their food, it is not like the taste is so different and better but it is basically home cooked ingredients with a restaurant touch. (more…)
