Gothamist: Taste of Chinatown Today!

Think twice

"I can't even imagine it with the weather being as nice as it is today." It was worse. Wall to wall locals, out of towners and strollers looking for cheap food (and that was just on our way to Mott Street). Me and my friend grabbed some chicken wings & Pad thai and skeedadled to those empty public plazas around the government buildings and soaked in civic architecture. We had enough of a Taste of Chinatown for one afternoon, thank you very much.

Went earlier today. There was way too many people. The food was pretty typical but cheap. It's worth checking out once.

Just got back with my booty. 2 banh mi sandwiches, one fried chicken leg, a container of razor clams, one viet satay beef something, one fried rice, and a noodle dish with veg, shrimp and fish. Next time I'm including some viet spring rolls and maybe a curry dish.

This thing is going to be mobbed to all hell. I went last year and, in the pouring rain, people were still lined up at every stand. It was extremely difficult to move around. I can't even imagine it with the weather being as nice as it is today. I would imagine a riot for the peking duck. God im hungry.
