Dim Sum @ New Pacific Chinese Cuisine Restaurant

Ranked 99 of 366 restaurants at Flushing (2008), Queens in Tripadvisor.com, we decided to try dim sum at New Pacific today. It is quite accessible and easy to locate from Flushing Main Street Subway Station. In Flushing, there are a lot of dim sum restaurants but we decided to try out this restaurant for a start.

Price: Affordable. We ordered five different items and two cans of diet coke on a hot Sunday afternoon. By the time we were done, we were too full to order more. We paid $20 for the whole meal.

Quality: Each item was freshly prepared. The Shumai was fresh and I can taste the succulent prawns. Yummy! The rice noodle roll was superb that I ate two portions of rice noodle rolls. Oops! The chicken steamed buns were equally delicious. All in all, we were grasping numerous ‘WOOs’ and 'AHs' as we took each bite. 

Store layout: Like a typical seafood restaurant, New Pacific has an oriental feel. The staff were both attentive and polite. Be prepared to share table if you were to come in a small group. We like the service we received and will come back again.

"Oops! I started eating and forgot to take pictures. My half eaten pork dumpling with chives."

"I will puff and puff... the puffy chicken steamed buns"

"fresh prawns in Shumai... you simply cannot resist."

"ah.. spare ribs... fleshy lean meat - great for those who dislike fatty meat."

"Yummy! my favorite. Great sauce as well."

Bar Lounge with Oriental Feel @ TMSK [Closed]

My friend and I found a bar lounge at the newly opened Queens Crossing Mall, Flushing Queens. Ms Yang Hui Shan, owner and former Taiwanese Golden Horse Award Winner, has a vision to create an ultra hip bar lounge made entirely out of colored glass. There was also a TMSK in Shanghai. China. There were excellent reviews from various websites, which made us give the lounge a try:  http://www.worldsbestbars.com/city/shanghai/tou-ming-si-kao-tmsk-shanghai.htm http://www.yelp.com/biz/mulan-flushing#hrid:Q3MH2iHCVkZZ2eHfCX9ahg/query:tmsk Price : Affordable. We ordered a Volka Orange and Dry Martini at $18. Quality : The drinks tasted great. The glassware was so beautiful. Store layout : The lounge had a very chic, yet oriental theme. We loved the place very much that we would definitely come again to chill out.  "This was a bar counter. They looked very beautiful that created a chillax ambience...

Froyo @ Pinkberry [Closed]

Summer is here! Nothing beats anything else than having an ice cream or popsicle. However, in Flushing, there is an increasing popularity for frozen yogurt where two new joints along Roosevelt Ave were opened earlier this year. For my first blog post, I like to share my food quest at Pinkberry Frozen Yogurt. I observed that there are always customers at the outlet. This is apparently so because the outlet is about less than a five-minute walk from Flushing Main Street Subway. At Pinkberry, there are three yogurt flavors like plain, green tea and coffee and a wide variety of topping from nuts, chocolates to fruits. I took a longer time to decide the toppings for my frozen yogurt.  Price : The price for for the plain yogurt is around US$4 with each topping at US$0.95. I ordered a smallest cup with two toppings as shown in the picture below. It costs me about US$6.  Quality : The yogurt is okay. As for the toppings, I go for the chocolate chip and roasted almond slice...
