Cuisine: 6 Service: 7…read moreDecor: 4 Value: 7 I have not been here in a long time. Maybe because the prices are no longer considered cheap eats. Or maybe because my taste buds have evolved over the years. Or maybe it's just not as good as it used to be. The answer is maybe all three and somewhere in the middle. I have never came here, or any other Latino-Chinese restaurants in NYC, for service or decor, so let's set that aside. The value is still somewhat there, but the food did not hit that nostalgic note I was looking for. I wanted to get the Fried Pork Chops (Chuletas De Cerdo Frita), but our server suggested the "juicier" Broiled Pork Chops (Chuletas De Credo Asada) instead. Sorry to report, if that's juicy, then how dry is the fried pork chops? I shutter at the thought. It was also under seasoned. I substituted the House Fried Rice for my side at an $4.50 additional fee. It was just okay and not worth the upgrade. Boneless Crispy Fried Chicken (Chicharron De Pollo) was also a disappointment. The batter was more hard than crispy, but the idea that boneless dark meat isn't more juicy simply tells me that the chef over fried the pieces. It came with Fried sweet plantains, which could have been a but more ripe but not bad. I'm not sure how I feel about the Beef Stew (Carne Guisada), which had relatively tender meat, but the sauce was so weak and lacked any real flavor. The black beans and white rice that came with it was decent. What might bring me back to this restaurant sooner rather than later was the Shrimp Egg Foo Young (foo Young Con Camarones). I felt that the eggs were cooked extremely well, but the star of the show was that delicious brown sauce full of umami. Having this over white or fried rice made this meal much more acceptable. I'm not sure when I'll have another craving for this type of food. If I do, I'll definitely get the egg foo young again. However, the other dishes were misses for me, so maybe I'll try the Fried Pork Chops and Shredded Beef in Tomato SayceRopa Vieja.

It helps that we speak the language that we got a little more comedic interaction with him! He was a hoot and was helpful in providing us advice on the # of dishes and what to get. I'd say everything is authentic to the Shanghainese cuisine so I'm a little biased that I loved every dish! A fish dish was suggested but we opted for our usual favorites: Scallion Pancake -made fresh as you can tell from the crunch Soup dumplings - super fresh, delicious inside, plenty of soup, perfect ratio of skin to meat Chow Fun - classic, look at the heaping amount of beef portioned on top!! Beef pepper steak - chunks were very tender and full of flavor Pork buns - a lovely crunch on the bottom of the bun, soft bread and tons of flavor Shrimp with broccoli - large pieces of shrimp (I didn't try it so I'm not sure on the taste)

Also before my brother got there, he said that since it was his birthday, he would bring out a "banana boat" which was just 5 scoops of ice cream and some cut up banana. When we got the bill he not only charged us for both, but that banana boat was $30! When we asked about it, he argued with us saying that he didn't tell us the price of every single thing that we bought... very rude. We also tried to order two orders of regular soup dumplings and two orders of the truffle. He kept rushing our order, and then tried to change our order to four orders of the truffle. We weren't sure if we would like it yet, and kept pushing back but he wouldn't take no for an answer (that being said the truffle was good, but I'm definitely a purist and preferred the regular soup dumplings). We also ordered the kau fu but it was not good, and tasted too much of five spice. The cha cha mien was fine, but a bit small and a little bland. The rice cakes were good, but the rice cakes were not al dente enough for me. We also got the fried rice, which was fine, but nothing to write home about. Finally we got a fried tofu dish which was good and had a lot of tofu in it. Overall, this server ruined our experience. The food is fine, but there are other Shanghainese restaurants in the area and would visit those over this place.

La Costa Verde in Perú is a fairly small stretch of coast in Lima, where green waters, strong…read morewinds, and intense natural beauty make for one of the nicest stretches of urban beachfront on Earth. It's a fairly lofty name for such a workaday Peruvian eatery, but the food flies high enough on its own. Before your meal, a nice salty tray of roasted hominy is brought out to tease your taste buds. During lunch, you will be joined by area locals who come in, order a lunch special, and quickly return to their jobs. The special ($7) comes with choice of entree and a nice cilantro soup. One interesting option is the chaufa, a dish so similar to Chinese takeout fried rice and found in chifas in Peru, but most of the others around you will be eating chicken. The restaurant does Peruvian specialties very well. That very rotisserie chicken is spot on, and the anticuchos ($7.25) are good substitutes when you are not in Lima, despite the unfortunate fact that they carry no picarones here. Walking down the street in any central coast city in Perú will present many hand-written menus with aji de gallina written at or near the top. The dish is a staple and an ultimate comfort food. It translates directly to chili chicken, but spices are mild in Peruvian cooking, the yellow aji covering thin chicken slices and potatoes. The dish served here ($9.25) is served with white rice and half a boiled egg. On a most recent visit, we decided to live on the edge and skip the normal ceviches for picante de mariscos ($14.50), a hot seafood dish that is medium spicy. The sauce is nice but it did not quite give us the same love as the delicious cold ceviche that can be eaten here. I do not remember eating a tamal ($5.50) while traveling in Perú, so I was interested to try one here, but unfortunately they are far less tasty than their Mexican rivals. Too much corn taste and too dry, but there is an olive inside. What I did have a lot of on that visit was chicha morada, a slightly sweet drink made of purple corn and very delicious, despite what my friends thought. At the very least, it is worth a taste for everyone. The service here at Costa Verde is very sweet, despite its functional nature. A couple scenes of the Andes Mountains decorate the interior, but not much more. I left with a feeling of wanting more immediately. It is impossible for one person or a small group to sample all the necessary items on the menu, so visit multiple times or bring a lot of friends.

My wife and I ordered the Lomo Saltado (Carne) and the Pescado Frito (or fried fish chunks). Let me tell - the Lomo Saltado was some of the most flavorful Lomo Saltado I've had in a while. Juicy, well marinated skirt steak accompanied by grilled red onion and tomatoes, on top of a bed of French fries and white rice. They had pickled onions on the side of this dish to really complement the savoriness of the dish with a nice touch of pungent acidity. Well balanced meal. The Pescado Frito came with an abundance of lemons which is a plus if you like to add that to your deep fried fish - as well as some Yucca and your traditional Peruvian sauces (white sauce and red sauce/hot sauce). Both sauces were flavorful and house made. I highly recommend this place, it was clean, service was quick and very hospitable. Our server made sure that we had ample napkins for our meal. My wife mentioned the bathroom was clean and there's ample seating inside for parties of 4 or more. Check this place out - you won't regret it.

The BBQ chickens were very similar to CL: tender, juicy, and tasty. It also came with green sauce, though not as thick or intense as CL's. Price points were also very comparable.

But I prefer Peking BBQ over CL for the following reasons: - More accessible. It's in Woodside, a lot closer than Bayside. - Smaller operation with shorter wait: 20-25 minutes vs. 1-1.5 hours. - More choices of sides: you can get pork fried rice, lo mein, even sweet and sour dishes.

Overall the ribs were really dry and overcooked, perhaps from being in the warmer a little bit longer than expected. They were also really skinny ribs with not a whole lot of meat. Perhaps I'll have to give them another try sometime given the number of folks that were there.
