Dried shrimp rice noodles with cilantro
Shirley H.

Small shop on the side of the street and away from busy 8th ave, but the shop still gets really crowded. There are tables and chairs against the wall. When I went, it was super loud with a man playing loud music on his phone along with staff and customers screaming. It is best to take away the rice noodles if you're around to get away from the madness. However, rice noodles should be eaten hot and fresh. The dried shrimp noodles had plenty of dried shrimp and I added cilantro. It was good, but the rice noodles elastic texture wasn't quite there. For the price, it's really good with the amount of ingredients.

Delicioso everything Made was fresh. My kids really enjoyed every dish that came out.

Large Pork and Preserved Egg Congee & Large Shrimp Rice Roll
Julie Ying X.

I came here on a Saturday morning. This place seemed pretty popular since there was a long line. The line moves fast though. They don't have many kinds of dim sum, just congee and rice rolls. I ordered a large pork and preserved egg congee and a large shrimp rice roll. The congee was good since there were large pieces of pork/ginger and it was flavorful. The shrimp rice roll was very mushy even though I ate it right away. Also, there wasn't much shrimp and the shrimp itself were very small. Next time, I would skip the rice roll and just get the congee. FYI - the place is cash only like the rest of Chinatown.

The changfen texture is very good! One downside was the sweet soy sauce it came with. It was a little watered down and not flavorful. They should give us a option for regular soy sauce instead of the sweet one.

My love for cheong fun knows no bounds. I used to hike over to the Elizabeth Street cart from the Grand St Station during my morning commute. These days, I drop by Hong King Dim Sum since it's only a block away from the 8th Av station whenever I'm in the mood for cheong fun in the morning. While it's a shorter schlep, the N trains do come by a little slowly in the mornings but that aside, it's the perfect pit stop for breakfast! It's a really cramped space so I would definitely recommend takeout. You can even call ahead of time so you don't have to wait as long for your order. I usually come before 9am so I haven't had any crowd/waiting issues. While Hong Kong Dim Sum does not offer much in terms of variety of dim sum, they do specialize in cheong fun and congee. As their rolls are made with "100% rice," it's a bit more robust than other cheong fun carts. It's not as chewy or translucent but it's also not as oily. The rice lends an extra sweetness and they are very generous with fillings. I've seen some reviews regarding the service here. All I have to say is that it's a small space that gets crowded quickly. While I don't think the workers are rude, they're brusque in the no-nonsense New Yorker manner used to maximize efficiency.

Hong Kong Dim Sum is a no frills cheap eat spot and hidden gem. Their rice noodles are made fresh. There is an assortment of different fillings that you can choose from to customize your own rice rolls. My go to order is simple: beef rice roll (sometimes I like to add egg and/or corn). They are generous with the beef pieces and I'm usually satisfied after consuming one order. I always drench my rice rolls in soy sauce for extra flavor. The congees are also delicious options. I've been here multiple times and nothing beats food that is fresh, cheap and delicious.

Pork and egg rice roll with soy sauce
Dana W.

My dad always buys breakfast from here for us and it was about time I visited them myself! The place itself is a small hole in the wall but the food is great! There is veryyy limited table space at the front you can eat on. It's very busy in the morning, most people just buy their food and quickly leave. Despite their name, they only serve rice rolls and congee. You order at the counter and they make the food fresh but amazingly quick. Also very cheap! I paid $3.50 for my pork and egg rice roll (It was $3 but adding egg is 50 cents). I like to drench my rice roll in soy sauce, tastes even better that way. The noodles are very soft and delicious. It's busy in the mornings, but their workers are always nice to me.

Congee
Irene L.

Whenever I'm in the area I tried to drop by here. The rice rolls are soft and fresh and the congee here is delicious. It's a hole in the wall but the food is good. I had the char siu rice roll with eggs. Adding eggs is extra 50 cents. The shrimp rolls are my favorite. Always get their preserved eggs with pork congee. You can add as much soy sauce, green onions, hot sauce as you like at the counter. I ordered 4 rice rolls and two small congee for $18.

Some of my favorite sesame chicken I've had in the neighborhood. Crispy and saucy just the way I…read morelike it. Quick delivery without failure. Definitely recommend ordering yourself some Happy Garden tonight!

Happy garden sounds like just another run-of-the-mill Cheap Chinese place. There are no shortage…read moreof these places because they serve a massive clientele of hungry locals. My family has a curse with these Chinese-American takeout places. We have a great experience the first few times and then the food starts arriving of a much lesser caliber. That being said, Happy Garden is my current place for a healthy, fresh Chinese American Combo Meal. They use fresh, clean vegetables and clean meat. I would prefer to have the tiniest amount of high quality meat in my food, more like a seasoning, atop a bed of varied greens. These guys do a good job of keeping the vegetables good without the big compromise: it's either loaded with piles of low grade meat in cornstarch, with a few veg for garnish, OR its so nutritious and delicious that they move to Williamsburg and I never hear another word.. Surprisingly clean beef in my veg. I am excited to try more things! But once my spouse ordered green beans without meat, but didn't know how to get the usual sauce. So he just ordered it regular instead of "beef with stringbeans, no beef"...and they served it in garlic sauce. Lots of places do this if you order it without meat; a real Chinese string bean might be topped with ground pork in the seasonings even if you asked for the non-meat version, because that is the traditional way to order it. Should you find yourself in the strange new world of people craving Chinese American Fast Food from whichever era you spawned, then I recommend trying as many local Chinese American places as you can. This one has the sauce-veg-meat ratio we are looking for, and the kinds of combination platters that can feed the whole darn bunch.

My first time trying sauerkraut fish was at Young Fish. Stepping into the restaurant, I immediately…read moreloved how spacious it was and how many tables and seats there were. It was kind of giving Hong Kong fast food/cafeteria type of vibes. It wasn't too busy when I went on a weekend for lunch. I love that you get a complimentary side dish with the order, and I went for cucumber salad, but it was served chilled. The salad contained wood ear mushrooms, which are known to release toxins if kept overnight, so I hope it was made the day of and not old! I really liked the udon beef stir fry. It was pretty big for just $13.95, and the udon had a good texture (not too mushy) while the beef tasted fresh. For the sauerkraut fish, you can choose between small and large. I got the small but felt that it was still a lot, so the portions are really generous. You can also choose between three different types of fish: basa, snakehead, and grass carp. The staff said snakehead is the most popular so we just went with that. It was filet (aka deboned) and tender when it arrived. But I think I'm not a big fan of the sauerkraut flavor. Also, it was crazy mala even with just one pepper sign. I'd go back to try the tomato sauerkraut version. I actually liked another fish dish more: garlic grilled fish. It also had a bit of broth that was very tasty. I would get this one again. Ended the meal with complimentary grass jelly!

Went to Young Fish on 8th Ave with a friend and shared the large chili oil sauerkraut fish with…read morebasa. We knew the large would be big, but it was still more food than we expected once it came to the table. Definitely not something I'd order alone. The broth was sour first, then the spice started building in an amazing way after a few bites. It wasn't painfully spicy or anything, but there was enough chili oil to make us slow down a little. The basa was very soft and picked up a lot of the broth, which I liked. Some pieces had been sitting near the bottom longer and tasted even better. The restaurant is pretty casual. Our food came out quickly. I'd order the same flavor again, but next time I'd either bring more people or get a smaller portion because the large was honestly a lot for two.
