[REVIEW] Hunan Dynasty, Levittown

Hunan Dynasty Levittown New York

Hunan Dynasty Chinese Restaurant in Levittown, NY When it comes to finding a good neighborhood Chinese restaurant, usually you get the same old same old, and they tend to cater to the lowest common denominator.  We would classify Hunan Dynasty as a neighborhood Chinese restaurant.  And as far as neighborhood Chinese restaurants go, this one in my humble opinion was ...

A Return to MOONSTONE Chinese Restaurant

Crushing Disappointment

A Second Look & Review When I first visited and ate at Moonstone Chinese Restaurant, located on Northern Blvd in Great Neck, just east of the Queens border, I had a terrific time, probably as much due to getting to meet and greet the characters of The Chinese Quest, as for any other reason (although the wine helped!). My wife (aka ...

Ancient Ginger Chinese Restaurant

Stop the Presses!!! In a day that will go down in the famed annals of The Chinese Quest when our story is completely written one day (what a play on words!), The Chinese Quest had the great pleasure, and honor, of being joined this evening by Long Island’s premier Food Reporter, Newsday’s Erica Marcus.  The setting for this evening’s Quest ...

Mission Accomplished! For months, the Mee’s have been seeking a new favorite restaurant on Long Island.  And tonight, we found Nirvana.  Moonstone, a recently opened authentic Chinese restaurant in Great Neck (oh so close to the Queens border) at 14 Northern Boulevard. Moonstone replaced the old Harvest Buffet.  The Mee’s never had the pleasure of, or lack thereof, that experience, ...

[Guest Review] Asian Buffet, Hicksville

Asian Buffet Hicksville

I’m generally not much of a fan of buffets, especially Asian ones. Perhaps it’s because I’ve been disappointed far more often than elated, but this past Sunday, Mee Pee Wee C (aka “the wife”) and I were hungry, on Old Country Road, not interested in eating fast food, at a diner, or having Italian food, and spotted this restaurant known ...
