HAPPY TIME CAFE

Today, I ate at Happy Time twice! Friends were visiting me at work. What a wonderful day!

I love Happy Time because it's only a few doors down from CICF. They have a million different things to choose from. They have meals if you're very hungry; snacks if you're kind of hungry; and lots of different drinks.

The owner must think I'm a bottomless pit. Within a five hour period, I ate a Hawaiian fried rice, A Hong Kong milk tea, a coffee with tapioca, and an order of fried dough.

Happy Time makes me HAPPY! =)

AUTUMN LIN PHOTOGRAPHY

I have been in a mood where I have just not been feeling pretty.  I've been playing that West Side Story song, singing along with my girl Maria and I'm still not feeling pretty.

My friend decided to get me out of my funk.  Autumn who is a well known photographer offered to photograph me.

Autumn maintains her original office in Chinatown and has expanded to Jersey.  Surprisingly only a small percentage of her clients are Chinese.  She has been voted the best photographer by the Knot Magazine.  Autumn also is one of the regular photographers for the United Nations. She gets to follow around members of royal families, capturing their precious moments with her camera.  How awesome is that?

I'm really looking forward to my pictures.  I know they will turn out beautiful, not because I am pretty but because Autumn is so fantastic.  That's why she gets paid the big bucks ( I would not be able to afford my pictures if she didn't do them for free.  I do manual labor for a living!) 

Everything fabulous comes from Chinatown! I'm sure I'll feel as pretty as Maria after seeing the photos.

BTW her private collection "Journey to the West" is being displayed at the gallery at 11 Front Street in DUMBO.

RED EGG'S BAR

Red Egg's bar has been a pretty cool place to hang out. If I have a rough day, I order a Shirley Temple (I rarely drink alcohol). Darren usually convinces me that I need to make that a double. This is as wild as I usually live... I really go because I love the dim sum that is served throughout the day as kinda a bar appetizer.

The other day, I was actually more adventurous and tried Darren's specialty drink. He is so proud of his Pisco Sour. It's a drink made with an egg white and Peruvian rum. Red Egg is Peruvian Chinese cuisine so it makes sense that this is a signature drink.

The Pisco Sour was DELICIOUS! I hear that alcoholic drinks with egg whites are all the craze. Maybe I should start living more dangerous.

Cheers to drinks at Red Egg!

BLOGGER PARTY

If you're reading this, you must have figured out that I am a blogger. My blog is actually #1 for NYC's Chinatown. (not to toot my own horn =) )

The other night, I had stayed out late to go to a blogger party. It was one of the few nights, where I pretended I had a life...

I had to go out! I was invited as one of the guests of food/other bloggers!

It was awesome! Desserts, alcohol and fellow bloggers! There are some days where it is great being me. =)

EXHIBIT AT COLUMBUS PARK

My friend Winnie always feeds me great news articles about what is going on in the community on Facebook.

The other day, I was strolling through Columbus Park. My friend asked me what the pictures hanging up were. Sadly though I own this blog, I didn't know the answer...

Right now, the exhibit Chinatown Voices is being exhibited throughout the park. The collection was meant to show the diversity of Chinatown; past and present.

I really loved it. I felt like it was something I could relate to since I'm in the community so much. Surprisingly neither of the artists were Chinese. Patel and Pham did however work through translators. One artist is Vietnamese and the other is from India.

The art is also interactive; inviting the spectator to relate the art to their own stories.

For me, most of the special moments in my life have taken place in Chinatown...

Visit Columbus Park and email me and I'd like for you to share your story with me. =)

WO HOP UPSTAIRS

Yesterday, me and two friends went to eat at the upstairs section of Wo Hop. We celebrated a friend's engagement over yummy snails.

Anna is so cute! It was about time her hubby popped the question! Gloria is also super special. When she gets engaged, we will have to continue the tradition and eat snails again!

Memorable moments are always happening at Wo Hop.

CHINATOWN TOWN HALL MEETING

An important event is taking place in the community on June 1st at 6:30. The Chinatown Working Group (CWG) is holding a Town Hall Meeting to discuss the future of Chinatown. The goal of the meeting is to hear what the community thinks and to bring up any current concerns.

The meeting will be held in both Chinese and English. I do encourage anyone who does live or work in the community to attend. Only by hearing our voices, will we be able to make positive change in our community.

The CWG will be holding a meeting this Wednesday (May 20th) at 4-5:30 at Community Board #1, Rm 79 at 49-51 Chambers Street to plan the Town Hall.

CHARLES B WANG

The other night I was invited to the Charles B Wang fundraiser. Mr. Wang is the legend that created Computer Associates. This man has been so generous with his fortune. In Chinatown in particular, he built our health clinic.  This year marked its 10th anniversary.  At the gala, Mr. Wang was the honoree.

I had the honor of meeting the impressive man. He was surprisingly humble. Mr. Wang has so many accomplishments.  He spoke with us about an organization he founded called Smile Train which helps to provide poor children with cleft surgery. 

Sitting around the table with me were other APA advocates and community members. Mr Wang and Mr Teng inspired us to put together a fundraiser in the community to help these children. 

It would be an honor for us to help these children in the spirit of Mr. Wang.  I believe it is important for us to give back to a man who has done so much for Chinatown.

PARIS SANDWICH

I love Paris Sandwich. It's one of my favorite spots in Chinatown. What is awesome about this shop is that they make all their breads there. Gourmet breads without the fancy price tag. (AWESOME!) The speciality here are their Vietnamese sandwiches. D-E-L-I-C-I-O-U-S!

I am also a fan of their coffee and frozen drinks and Vietnamese desserts.

Do note that they close early. Lucky for me; otherwise I'd be 200 pounds!

BO KY RESTAURANT

I ate at Bo Ky yesterday and last Friday. I really can't get sick of this place. They have literally hundreds of items on their menu.

I always happen to bump into someone I know there. It's one of the places where the locals eat in Chinatown.

Yesterday, I decided to be adventurous. I tried the fish dumplings with the wide noodles in soup. My usual is the country duck over rice. My friend got the lemon grass steak which is what I'm getting next time.

The average meal here, including a soda, tea, and a tip will run around $8. What a bargain!

KENDRA LEE

Kendra Lee's last day as the Executive Director of the Greater Chinatown Community Association (GCCA) was today. Chinatown will sadly be losing such a passionate APA advocate. Though Kendra loves the GCCA with all of her heart, she will be moving on to graduate school.

Sal Situ will be taking her place. He is a rockstar so the GCCA will be in good hands. I will also be staying on as Committee Chair of the YALT with Mabel Cheah. We got in under control. =)

Today, we celebrated over bowls of noodles at Bok Ky restaurant. I love Kendra as not only as an advocate but as good friend.

Lots of luck to her in the Young Urban Fellow Program!

FIRE at HONG KONG SUPERMARKET

Last night there was a big fire in the building next to Hong Kong Supermarket (HKS). The fire got so big that it spread to the supermarket. HKS has sadly burned down.

The fire had gone on for many hours. It attracted not only a lot of reporters, but a lot of photographers that wanted to document the event.

The market that sat on the corner of Pike and East Broadway was a favorite shopping spot for many.

DINNER at RED EGG RESTAURANT

I just came from dinner with good friends. Red Egg is for sure one of my favorite places in Chinatown. I love the unique decor. It reflects the influence of a young second generation of young Chinatown restaurateurs.

Tonight, we ate spare ribs, Peking duck and bok choy. Peking duck....ummm my favorite!

I'm dying to go back to try their seared tuna.

(PS This is a picture of my friend Yanna posing with our food. She is much prettier than me.)

COCO FASHION

This cute little botique has a lot of HK flare to it. The prices are affordable and the clothing is a bit more unique than going to H &M.

The only problem I find when I shop at these stores, is that they often don't have my size. I tend to be on the taller side. I also have a bit more meat on my bones.

I recommend this shop for people who are petite and looking for something a little different.

NAGOYA FASHION BOUTIQUE

Chinatown is notorious for selling knock-offs.  But did you know that it is possible to get a deal on authentic designer goods?  The catch is that they are second hand items.  They are however sold in good condition with the official certificates.   

Beware that although these used items are heavily discounted, they are still not cheap.  When girls are bummed out, they tend to indulge in retail therapy.  My sister says that there is no broken heart that can't be fixed with an LV Bag.  I think I'll take a second look at the boutique.  I am a fan of the bags but not a fan of the original prices.

BURGER KING

My friend Paul owns more Burger Kings than I can keep track of. He particularly owns the Burger King on Delancy Street.

Though Burger King isn't traditional Chinese cuisine, it is loved by many of Chinatown's locals.

This Burger King has also been particularly charitable to the Chinatown community. My workers have fond memories of contests sponsored by Burger King from their elementary schools. Paul also makes sure that his businesses give back to the communities they are in. He's making the BK a socially conscious product downtown!

Though I am not a huge fast food fan, I love the BK Whopper.

PJ KIM'S FUNDRAISER AT YELLO

My friend PJ is actually running for City Council for our area (District 1).  (Yes, I already know I am an underachiever.)

He's having his kickoff at one of my favorite places, YELLO!  There are free drinks and goodies for the first 50 people who arrive at his party tonight which is from 6-9pm.  If I wasn't his friend before, I think I'll be his friend now! Just kidding...

The extra bonus of the night is that PJ will be giving out gift certificates for Chinatown Ice Cream Factory.  I think PJ is on to something... ice cream makes everyone popular and loved. =)

Drinks, food, ice cream, and politics.  That's what I call a Friday night. I'll be dropping in so hope to see you there.

PENANG RESTAURANT

Penang is definitely one of the best Malaysian restaurants out there. My favorite appetizer is the Roti Cani which is an Indian pancake with curry sauce. It's great for sharing and it is must if you have never eaten Malaysian food.

Yesterday, we also ordered the Hainese chicken and the Pan Fried Pearl Noodles. Ummmmm. Um...

It was exactly what I wanted for dinner. A good, delicious, filling meal. It helped me get over my disappointing lunch that had still left me hungry and my wallet nearly empty.

PEONY RED

Peony Red can be best described in short as a botique version of Pearl River. The shop carries a variety of Chinese inspired clothing that is a little more edgy. Yanna, who is the owner has a unique style to her apparel line.

My friend Sandra was wearing a dress from Peony Red the other night and was receiving so many compliments. The next day, I caved in to my shopping addiction. I went to the shop and purchased not one but two dresses!

What is also great about this place is the service. It's run with that Soho boutique feel without the expensive sticker prices. The super bonus is that they tailor your dress to you.

CICF ICE CREAM AT THE COMPTROLLER'S APA CELBRATION

Tonight, Comptroller Thompson had his APA Celebration at Flushing's Townhall.

Of course, CICF ice cream made the night complete during the reception that followed.

Happy APA Month! 

Wo Hop Restaurant

Wo Hop is quite possibly one of Chinatown's most famous restaurants event for people who have not come to Chinatown. On the sitcom, Everyone Loves Raymond, Ray often talks about his love for Wo Hop's food.

The restaurant has an upstairs and a walk down area.  The walk down area is much more popular than the upstairs.  I would recommend it for the "real Wo Hop" experience.  The decor is adorned with photos of celebrities who are fans of the place.

The food however, is not traditional Chinese cuisine.  I would say it's kind of a Chinese/American fusion late night food joint.  

My friend Amy (who isn't Chinese) told me that her parents had their first date there.  Glad it went well, otherwise Amy wouldn't have been born! =)  Chicks must dig Wo Hop as a date spot?  Dig it, dig it?

GINGSENG AND HERB CO-OP

At this cute shop, they have barrels of different grades of ginseng. They sell everything ginseng from whole pieces to powders and teas.

Prices vary a lot and I am personally not a ginseng connoisseur. Ginseng in general is known to be very good for your health. I used to drink ginseng supplements instead of drinking coffee. It really does give you a bit of a boost. Ginseng is also good for your immune system.

TURD at ELIZABETH CENTER

My friend came in with this cartoon turd mouse pad. She was ecstatic that she got it. (Keep in mind we are in our late 20's.)

This character is actually quite popular. I went to check it out at Elizabeth Center (E.C.). They have a whole section devoted to cartoon turd!

So they have everything from turd mousepads to turd photo holders.

Turd is the new craze!

Shop located at the lower level of Elizabeth Center (located between Bayard and Mott Streets)

SUNSHINE 27

Sunshine 27 had it's grand opening a couple of weeks ago. Lines to get into this new venue have been very long.

I'm dying to try it out. Seafood is their speciality. In Chinatown live seafood is a real delicacy. Many choose swimming fish from tanks or live lobsters. In merely minutes, they are cooked and served.

If you check it out before I do, email me!

TASTY HAND-PULLED NOODLES INC

I had been dying to try this new place for the last few months. I've always found their sign to be very attractive and appealing. It is one of the newest places on the historic Doyers street which was part of the old Five Points.

Tasty hand pulled noodles Inc. is indeed very tasty. I was pleasantly surprised. I wasn't particularly in the mood for noodles but fell in love with my dish instantly. It was love at first bite....

I recommend the duck with the hand pulled noodles in soup. That's my favorite. I also really liked the seafood with the hand pulled noodles.

All their noodles are made fresh in house. It's hard to believe given the small size of the restaurant. The store front makes it look so much bigger than it really is. I guess that makes it all the more special.

I found their staff to also be particularly friendly.

NEW TU DO

I love Chinatown because there are just so many restaurants. It feels like you never walk down the same street twice.

My friend introduced me to this Vietnamese restaurant that I had never been to before. New Tu Do has the traditional Vietnamese menu. The food is very fresh and the restaurant is very spacious.

My favorites are the lemon grass chicken and the summer rolls. The Vietnamese coffee is always a treat. It is follows through a coffee sieve and is mixed with condense milk. Super yummy!

Again like most of the restaurants in Chinatown, the food is extremely affordable. It is questionably cheaper to eat out than it is to cook at home. Great food is still a reality here in this bad economy.

GCCA Yard Sale

Right now until the 17th the Greater Chinatown Community Association is collecting new or gently used items for its yard sale. It's a great way to sneak in a last minute tax deduction. Donating old items also makes me one to fill my closets with something new.

In NYC, the terms vintage and consignment is very in. I'm sure that there will be lots of hidden treasures sold at this event. All the proceeds also benefit the GCCA which works for bettering the Chinatown community.

The event will take place on April 18th from 9am-3pm. It will be held in the Transfiguration Courtyard across from the GCCA. (105 Mosco Street)

Attend with friends for a fun afternoon of bargain shopping! Hope to see you there!

CREATIVE SIGN PROJECT

The kids at CPC Division street have been redesigning our banner and awning. Today marks the end of their final design! The CPCers of course had to party with ice cream to celebrate!

I was blown away by the creativity of these elementary schoolers. When they grow up, I may one day be out of a job!

We should be celebrating our "sign make over" the first week in May! Stay tuned!

The Dining Room Management Group

Last night, I met up with a friend and a group of people for dinner and karaoke. Since I don’t like to sing in front of people, I went for the food. The place was called The Dining Room Management Group. It was the first place in Chinatown I have been to that has a formal and sophisticated name. Although its name stands out from the other restaurants in Chinatown, its cuisine was similar to most of the neighboring establishments. What was different and very cool about this place is their basement. There were 2 private rooms for dinner and karaoke- great for parties! Reservation was easy and the rooms were more than affordable; or borderline cheap. You don’t want to miss this! Check it out:

The Fortune Cookie Chronicles demystifies how the familiar Chinese American foods that we consume regularly came about. We know what General Tso's Chicken is, but who was he?  Where on earth did the idea of fortune cookies come from?  This is a total great read for any foodie!

Tonight, there will be a DJ, beer, ice cream and cupcakes that will be accompanying Jennifer 8 Lee's appearance.

DURIAN ICE CREAM

Yesterday, we were on Fox Five for a segment on exotic foods with medicinal benefits. They came in search of the durian ice cream with a world famous food expert.

Everyday you learn something new. Durian is surprisingly an aphrodisiac. For those of you unfamiliar with the spiky fruit, it is banned in many places in Asia because of its strong rotting smell. Despite its infamous smell, people find it irresistibly delicious!

With today being Valentine's Day, durian might just be our most in demand flavor!

Happy Valentine's Day and happy durian ice cream eating!

LUCKY CAKES DEBUT AT MAYOR'S RECEPTION

Missing Marilyn Feng

This past weekend, my friend Marilyn Feng was killed by a drunk driver as she was walking. She was coming from tango classes with her boyfriend. He is in critical condition. She was supposed to start work today at Chinatown's Manpower.

Marilyn was very involved in the APA community. She had formerly worked at the Borough President's office and for Asian Women in Business. Marilyn was only a few years younger than I and had already held a degree in law from NYU.

As I walked through the neighborhood today, I couldn't help but think of her. We girls had a list of things that we wanted to try out in the Chinatown area. We were planning to do everything from taking kickboxing classes, to getting a back massages and dinners. She was going to start work today, just down the block from where I am. There seemed to be so much time ahead of us. Now I realize and regret that our time was cut short.

I had just seen her a couple of weeks ago and she was perfectly healthy. A young girl with a love for the community and a bright future ahead of her.

The community and the world suffers a loss. I encourage people to be careful while driving and to be especially responsible when drinking.

We will all be missing Marilyn Feng...

CANTON KITCHEN

I have recently been exploring more new restaurants that have been popping up on the other side of Canal Street. A new favorite of mine is Canton Kitchen.

They have quite a variety of dishes. I like that fact that they offer something called "spa cuisine" which is a selection of very healthy items. Spa cuisine dishes include things like a variety of steamed vegetables, shrimp, and chicken to choose from.

The also offer the not so healthy alternative for some of my cravings. I love their fried chicken wings. Great for cold days like today to eat at home while watching some movies!

In this economy, their lunch specials are quite appealing. From 11am to 4 pm, you can choose from over 50 different items that come with a choice of either fried or white rice. They even somehow manage to throw in a soup! Now, that's what I call a bargain.

They are open 7 days a week from 8 am to 11pm. They also offer free delivery from 11am to 10pm.
