Fried Rice with Dried Scallops and Egg White @ Corner 28 [Moved]

Rice is the staple food for most people in Southeast Asia. It is no different for me. We decided to try out a Fried Rice at Corner 28. We chose Fried Rice with Dried Scallops and Egg White.

Price: Value for Money. Priced at $12, you can share with at least three persons as one decent meal.

Quality: I love the way the chef cooked the fried rice. I could vividly see each grain of the pearly white rice. The pine nuts were roasted. The egg whites were well fried from a master because the eggs had even tear-like shapes. The use of fresh ingredients like scallops and oil made the rice even more delicious. We enjoyed the dish very much. Fried rice, I’ll be back!!!

Store layout: The restaurant at the second level has a more Zen look. We savoured every grain of rice while enjoyed the wonderful view of Main Street, Flushing.

"You can clearly see the pine nuts, rice grains and dried scallops."

"Look at the mountainous heap of fried rice!! If you are adventurous enough, you can try it with green chilli. Delicious!"

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

Hot & Sour Soup @ No. 1 East Restaurant

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 soup was delicious. The restaurant served a very generous portion of the hot and sour soup with a lot of bamboo shoots and mushrooms. One of the best and value-for-money hot and sour soups I had ever eaten in Flushing. Store layout : The restaurant was located along Main Street right after the Flushing Public Library. It was a simple restaurant with attentive staff. We had a table beside the window. We can watch people while dining. "A prominent restaurant that you should not miss it while walking along Main Street."

Deep Fried Spicy Chicken Strips @ Sago Café [Closed]

Bubble tea is not uncommon at Flushing, Queens. Bakeries, restaurants, cafes and even small food joints alike were selling bubble tea. Bubble tea is originated in Taiwan in the 1980s. I decided to try out one of the bubble tea joints – Sago Tea Café in the neighbourhood. Other than serving iced beverages, Sago Café also served food and snacks. Price : Reasonably affordable. Quality : The spicy chicken strips with lemon juice were tasty. It was a great snack to share with a group of your friends. Store layout : The store was strategically located diagonally across the Main Street Subway Station. There are two doors in Sago - the first door was the entrance and the other was an order window for takeouts. The cafe was always full of people during hot summers - who either dined in or ordered takeouts. You might have to wait if you craved for a cold drink at Sago Cafe. Though the staff were very efficient, they were also unfriendly and rude. Where : Sago Café, 39-
