Afghanistan Mixed Meat-Over-Rice @ Madina Halal Food

Afghanistan mixed meat over rice is the food I ate when I first arrived in New York. The basmati rice and masala spices make the whole meal fragrant and mouth-watering. Pricing at $5, you can have either lamb-over-rice or chicken-over-rice with fresh salad. At $6, you can have mixed meat-over-rice (lamb and chicken). I ordered a mixed meat-over-rice.

Price: Value for money. The portion for the mixed meat-over-rice is sufficient for two persons.

Quality: Great quality. The basmati rice was well cooked. You can vividly see every single grain of rice. The lettuce salad was very fresh and it blended well with the white sauce. The meat (chicken and lamb) succulent. The white and hot sauces make the food even more delicious and spicy. Beware of the hot sauce if you do not take spicy food. You can smell the mouth-watering aroma from afar.

Store layout: The food cart is located at the end of Lippman Plaza along 39 Ave – 138th Street, Flushing. It is very easy to locate. 

"look at the mixed meat with white and red sauces. yummy!!!"

"don't forget to look for this food cart. The food cart will be there from noon to about 10pm."

Iced Milk Tea @ AA Plaza [Closed]

I have been observing that people love to drink iced milk tea during summer. Though I am not an avid fan for milk tea, I want to try and understand why they love it. Once I tried the Iced Milk Tea from AA Plaza , I finally understood. The rich cream and the tea fragrance could be extremely addictive. Price : Cheap! $1.25 for an iced milk tea. A good thirst-quencher. Quality : The milk tea was neither too sweet nor too thick. AA Plaza used evaporated milk instead of the sweetened condensed milk, just the way I would like it. It tasted so much like ‘Teh C’ aka tea with evaporated milk back home. Even though it was addictive, I still prefer green tea to milk tea. Store layout : A simple takeout stall beneath the Flushing LIRR station. The staff were quite friendly. The only problem was the queue. People would jump in the queue if you were not aggressive enough. Otherwise, you could have your orders taken within minutes.  Where : AA Plaza, 40-40 Main Str...

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...

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. Whe...
