Yoz Shanghai was impressive! This is truly a hidden gem in Flushing. I can't believe how many times I walked by this place and never spot it!   The soup dumplings are very inexpensive compared to other more popular places. Not only did they not skimp on the ingredients, it was also very tasty! The… Read More »

Fantastic coffee. Hot bar full of delicious food and a full menu too. Incredibly friendly. This place is a welcome relief from the over priced Bushwick hype. Go to here! Read More »

This is my Chinese restaurant, there are many who try to be like it but this one is mine.  They can do no wrong here. I've had 80% of the dishes here and all of them are winners.   The staff is punctual and the table turn over is fast so you never have to wait for a table very long. Read More »

Sandwich shop is super small but they allow you to stand around and hang out with your friends. I had the pork belly sandwich and blood orange lemonade. Both were very flavorful and phenomenal. I highly recommend this place. Read More »

Service was friendly, helpful, and attentive.  You start off with warm savory popcorn with hints of bacon as you order your drinks and look through their menu.   Each dish is well thought out and created to it's utmost originality. You just can't go wrong with their menu.   I do recommend their… Read More »

3rd Ward is a fantastic space, where you can take classes to quench what seems to be an endless amount of artistic curiosity.  Wood working? Yes.  Jewelry making?  What step?  Setting jewels?  Making molds from wax?  Metal working?  Photography?    I was just there for a for-fun photoshoot and we… Read More »

I like Google search.  It's an astounding tool.  I'm on it constantly.  I like the simplicity of the graphics.  I like that I can choose Images of my search, Videos of my search and so on.  It's nothing short of a miracle.  I like Maps.  Brilliantly designed, so intelligent and simple.  I like most… Read More »

*****200*****  Maury, I am out of control.  When I first started using Yelp, all I did was look up business addresses and upload the occasional photo. Now, my brain thinks in Yelp terminology. Did you check in? When's the next UYE? Will you FUC me? ..Also, can I rate my friends too? ;)  I've heard… Read More »

What in the world were we thinking?! It was just an ordinary family dinner with the two kiddos and we went home with two buckets of food? My husband had the cravings for the seafood pot so we made a trip all the way out here for it. We always go to the Flushing location, but last night, we wanted to… Read More »

This store is probably the only good reason to come to Rockefeller Center.   Firstly, their stock is lovely. Objects, clothing, art, and jewelry you'd find at the MET and more--high quality goods at reasonable prices. I came in on a weekday at the lunch hour to make  small return and a few… Read More »

5 stars for happy hour mon-fri 5-8 pm   Wines and cocktails are $13 a pop  But free happy hour appetizers!  These include small pizzas, goat cheese and endive,  prosciutto flatbreads, asparagus wrapped in prosciutto, eggplant dip, hummus Read More »

This place is our favorite local restaurant for a quick but still classy dinner out. Great pizza, especially the wild nettle when they have it, and the Italian Ice is delicious. Good service always, and you can get wine by the carafe which always helps to save a few dollars. Definitely worth looking… Read More »

One of the best south Indian restaurants we've been to. A great addition to what you can do it's also need food. They've taken classic dishes and added ingredients and spices to make them delicious. The staff was extremely friendly. Very welcoming. Went there with two little kids with his little… Read More »

My friend brought me to this place, and it's the first time I've had laksa. Before I was introduced to laksa I never knew that noodle soup was a breakfast item in some parts of the world.  You just go up to the counter, choose your type of noodle (regular or vermicelli), broth (spicy or not), and… Read More »

I met the original owner and chef of Taiwanese Specialities when I was a kid back in the 80s. He used to have a small little spot in the food court on 78th Street and Roosevelt ave in Elmhurst down the street from me. This was the time when good authentic Chinese food was a bit harder to find… Read More »

*Must Try: Seafood Pancake!  *Barbeque Boolkoki is really tasty. *Combination Soft Tofu Bowl has everything you need. (Beef, Shrimp, Clams, Mushrooms.) *ALL tofu bowls are ~$8. Read More »

This place is an absolute gem..walked by it a million times before deciding to check it out. Amazing egg-bacon-cheese sandwich..and great coffee. Read More »

I'm not sure how to react when I ask the cashier, "Do you have a recommendation for a sandwich" and the cashier responds, "All of them, my name is on the door." Is he proud of his unique and tasty sandwiches? Is he being arrogant about his ability to perfectly toast his bread and insert meats,… Read More »

Very interesting collection and a great atmosphere. When I went, the collection they were featuring was "Zero", and it's absolutely fascinating. I am, by no means, a museum/art aficionado so I won't do the museum a disservice by attempting to describe the works/collections. But that being said, to… Read More »

Well...I have often heard of fantastic exhibitions at this museum, and I have visited twice now.  My gripes are logistical issues that the museum probably can't help at this point--the physical layout of the museum sucks, and that's a fact. I hope you're not in a hurry to get anywhere here.  The… Read More »
