“Those places aren’t authentic and it’s made to tailor the tasting profile of tourists and Americans. It’s pretty much Panda Express but being served in a Chinese restaurant setting.”

replying to u/Cuck_4_Cunnilingus: Sorry to hear about that OP. Chinatown def best option. Maybe something like Great NY Noodle Town. Area is a fun excursion. Hope this helps
“Second this. Hop Kee, Tin Wong, or Kong Sihk Tong could provide a very fulfilling dinner for under $120.”

replying to u/cambiumkx: Never been to tin Wong so I’ll just comment on wah fung. Wah fung is authentic, meaning it sells good fresh canto bbq cheap. ive gone since 20 years ago, way before all the social media hype. I never thought it was anything special though, it’s about the same as all the other bbq shops in that area. I haven’t gone in years. I would never line up to eat at wah fung.
“I go to Tin Wong now because I can't deal with the stupid line at Wah Fung. Happy for them, but no mas for me. 😂”
