Maybe third time is the charm?
After closing their two shops in Flushing and Chinatown over the past year or so, I was wondering if I'll see this vendor serving Teochow cuisine again. Luck would have it, they are now part of the Eat Up Food Court under 99 Ranch supermarket in Flushing.
Honestly, overall I always thought they were three stars because certain items like their tofu are actually not really good. However, if you stick with their two signature dishes, then you should be satisfied.
The Marinated Pork Leg Over Rice is quite delicious for $12. Get the combo with soup if you like for $3 more, but unnecessary imho. If you are adventurous, then try the Marinated Pork Feet Over Rice. It has tasty skin and tendon that is unusual to westernized taste buds, yet delightful to the rest of the world.
This may not be a place I seek out, but it's nice to have something different than all the usual suspects inside of all the food courts. Also, because much of its food is served at room temperature, this is a great place for takeout. read more
