I haven’t had them here before but am looking forward to it! What I look for in a soup dumpling- a good XLB needs a thin skin/wrapper to let the inner meat and soup shine like the stars they are.

What people like to order here: sticky rice wrapped in lotus leaf, BBQ roast pork buns, siu mai (open faced steamed shrimp and pork dumpling) You’ve got to try both restaurants and see which you like better! Like Golden Unicorn, Jing Fong utilizes those beloved food carts that just add so much to the dining experience. Jing Fong has two locations: one in Chinatown and one in the Upper West Side (both of which are participating in NYC Restaurant Week).

You can get the full experience of eating in a bustling chaotic Chinese banquet hall, choosing your food on the fly from steaming food carts making their rounds. The ambiance here is so wonderfully nostalgic, too. I had my first NYC dim sum experience at Golden Unicorn years ago and it currently remains at the top of my list for flavor, the authenticity of their old-school dim sum, and the creativity of their new-age dim sum.
Golden Unicorn has been serving up Cantonese fare and dim sum since 1989. So here we go! Here are the Chinese food restaurants I'm most excited about:Ĭhinese Food Picks for NYC Restaurant Week To-Go 2021 And while I definitely can't afford to support even a noticeable portion of the 500+ restaurants in this NYC Restaurant Week, I can support a few! And I think you know what kind of food I’ll probably go for. What I'm trying to say is that the restaurants of NYC have been ravaged for nearly a full year now due to COVID. ***Alright, I’ll get off my soapbox now*** And yes, you are essential too even if your occupation isn't listed on some poster on the sidewalk.
