"Zou Ji", a Chinese restaurant, opened up three weeks ago in Syosset, New York.  Zou Ji features Northeast Chinese Home Style, or Dongbei, cuisine. This evening we had some dishes that we had never eaten before on our Quest, and that was only half the surprises that were in store for us!

The long line of hungry people waiting to eat at "Shanghai You Garden Dumpling House" should give you an indication of not only how popular this Chinese restaurant is, but possibly how good it is too. If you want to see what all the buzz is about, I suggest you go to 135-33 40th Street, Flushing, NY 11354 - Now if only we knew what that dessert soup was!

Our latest Quest landed us at Nan Bei Ho in Bayside, Queens, New York. The owner Angela Mao was as famous as Bruce Lee, when she was a martial arts film star in Hong Kong during the 70's. We hoped to meet the living legend herself, and have a legendary meal. But alas, all we were met by was disappointment.
