[REVIEW] Ivory Kitchen, Port Washington, NY

Ivory Kitchen Sign

Ivory Kitchen is one of the two new authentic Chinese restaurants that opened in the past year in Port Washington, NY. We are thrilled by the insurgence of new authentic Chinese restaurants opening on Long Island, not only because of the influx of new restaurants to try, but it helps keep us on our Quest to find the best Chinese Restaurant on Long Island (and New York City). One of the great joys of our Quest is meeting the owners and hearing about their stories, and their Quest to bring the best of their Chinese cuisines to you. This wonderful married couple has quite a story to share, and quite delicious food to try. Find out what The Chinese Quest thought of Ivory Kitchen by clicking on the link! Chow for now!
