Chinese New Year NYC 2013

Gung Hay Fat Choy! We went out to watch the Chinese New Year Firecracker Ceremony. But because it wasn’t in the place where I thought it was, we ended up on the wrong side of Chinatown. So we just went to Dim Sum instead. Like always, the popular places are packed. So we went to East Market Restaurant like always. Always out of the way and somewhat hidden.

I thought it was funny that Josh, who used to be Vegan, loved the Chicken Feet. Sam also liked it too. I think they are more Chinese than I am.

A nice surprise was the Custard Steamed Buns. Sweet dessert-like in the middle of our meal. The filling almost tasted like cookie dough.

Hello,

I thought you might be interested in the the story at NYCultureBeat.
*Artist Ik-Joong Kang’s Chinatown Restaurant Guide
“Chinatown is similar to my hometown Itaewon in Korea, in that it has so many places to get foods that are both cheap and good.”
Installation artist Ik-Joong Kang knows everything about Chinatown. After graduating from Pratt Institute in 1988, Kang rented a small studio in Chinatown for $250. After 25 years, the artist still resides in the neighborhood.
Every morning, young artist Kang, poor and starving, went to his studio, wondering where to get some cheap, and yet, still tasty food.
