Peking Duck-to-go @ Corner 28 [Moved]

As I walked down along Main Street, I found a Cantonese restaurant - Corner 28 - selling Peking Duck. The restaurant is situated between 40th Street and Main Street. You can definitely spot the place almost immediately. Corner 28 sells Peking Duck at 75cents per piece. Wrapped between a lotus-shaped wheat bun and stuffed with finely chopped onions and cucumber and hoisin sauce, it brought out the nice flavor of Peking Duck. I ordered eight pieces at $6.

Peking Duck is a national symbol of China favored by officials and tourists. It is also part of the imperial menu and upper class since the Yuan Dynasty.

Price: Affordable. Every piece of Peking Duck is priced at 75cents. I was stuffed after eating four pieces.

Quality: Excellent quality. The crunchiness of the cucumber and spring onions made Peking Duck delicious and mouth-watering. I was not sick of the food after the fourth piece. Yummy!!

Store layout: Peking Duck can be bought at the little window outside the restaurant along Main Street. You can buy the delicacy without queuing at the narrow aisle in the restaurant.

"mouth-watering Peking Duck that no one can resist!! Yummy!!!"

"the restaurant is along Main Street."

"look out for the ordering window"

Where: Corner 28, 40-28 Main Street

Three-Cup Chicken (三杯鸡) @ No. 1 East Restaurant

Originated from Jiangxi province of Southern China, the three-cup chicken (三杯鸡) is a popular in Taiwan. The three-cup chicken uses three cups of different sauces to cook the chicken. There are two versions to the origins of three-cup chicken. One, a sympathetic prison warden who cooked a dish with limited resources available before the execution of a national hero from the Song dynasty, Wen Tianxiang. Second, it involves a cook due to the lack of time used three cups of sauces and simmered it for a long time. At No. 1 East Restaurant, We chose a combo meal for two that comprised stir-fry Lobster with Garlic , three-cup chicken , hot and sour soup , and Mapo Tofu . Quality : The three-cup chicken (三杯鸡) was delicious. The chicken was fresh and the sauce was fragrant. The rice tasted more fragrant if you were to add the sauce to it. Store layout : The restaurant was located along Main Street right after the Flushing Public Library. It is a simple restaurant with atten...

Young Chow Fried Rice @ Joes Shanghai Restaurant

Enclaved in the tranquil 37th Ave, Joe's Shanghai is one of the longest running and popular Chinese restaurant in Flushing Queens. I happened to hear very good reviews from friends and decided to check out the place. Price : Priced at around $8, you can have a decent meal for one. Quality : The presentation of the fried rice did not match the taste of the dish. The dish had ham, egg and prawn as part of their ingredients. It was salty. Nah, miss it. Forgettable. In the end, we drank lots of water and tea to quench our thirst. Store layout : A montage of pictures taken with famous celebrities will greet you when you enter the restaurant. The staff will hand you a queue number. The restaurant is always crowded and people will usually queue outside the restaurant. There are at least three rows of tables. Their staff understand English and are polite and attentive. "the amount of fried rice is best shared with two persons." "although the ingre...

Crispy Pepper Skin Duck @ Joes Shanghai Restaurant

Enclaved in the tranquil 37th Ave, Joe's Shanghai is one of the longest running and popular Chinese restaurant in Flushing Queens. I happened to hear very good reviews from friends and decided to check out the place. Price : Expensive for a half of a scrawny and dry duck priced more than $10. I could have bought a fat and succulent duck from elsewhere. Quality : The name of this dish sounded very interesting at that time. ‘Crispy’ and ‘Pepper’ are the two keywords that attracted me to make such an order. When the dish was served, I was very disappointed. The duck was small like the size of a pigeon. The flesh was dry and there was no crispiness and pepper in or on the duck. All I could taste was salt and more salt. Forgettable dish. In the end, we drank lots of water and tea to quench our thirst. Store layout : A montage of pictures taken with famous celebrities will greet you when you enter the restaurant. The staff will hand you a queue number. The restaurant is ...
