There’s many places to get Taiwanese pork chop over rice in New York. If you recall, there’s even a place called Excellent Pork Chop House on Doyers. Well, forget that place (at least for pork chops) because Hua Ji Pork Chop Fast Food is the MOST EXCELLENT pork chop house. MORE »

Spicy Jop Tang at Jin Jja Roo – NYC

I realized I’ve been eating Chinese food every day this week for lunch so I decided I needed a break and went to K-Town for some Korean food.

I didn’t think we’d have much luck at the usual Chinatown dumpling shops so we ended up at Buddha Bodai.

The best dish of the entire meal was the Muslim Lamb Chop ($21.95), a rack of lamb fried crunchy and encrusted with an insane amount of cumin. Besides being a basic flavor bomb, the meat was juicy and fall-off-the-bone tender. I foresee another visit to Fu Run in the near future. No tequila, but no regrets. MORE »
