Last night I had the strangest dream.  I dreamed of the most delicious and authentic Chinese meal.  Some of my closest friends in the world were there.  A world-renowned food reporter was there too.  Jennifer Lopez provided the entertainment.  And even someone I hadn’t seen in over 40 years from my days at Camp Boiberik was there too.  What a ...

On December 23rd, the Quest ended up at Pine Court Chinese Bistro located at 249-32 Horace Harding Expressway, in Little Neck for our 26th restaurant review. I have to say this was our most convenient dinner with our “Happy Hour” meeting place, liquor store (BYOB), Pine Court, and Carvel all within one half block. Although the place looked like it ...

Hitting the Superfecta in Little Neck It takes four things to perfectly align to hit a Superfecta.  And on this Erev Christmas Eve we hit all four ALL on one block in Little Neck!  Our Quest this evening took us to Pine Court Chinese Bistro, which by the name doesn’t at all appear to be an authentic Chinese restaurant.  Such an ...

I won’t be calling this an official review.  But, it is the first time that I actually ate AT Hunan Taste in Greenvale.  As you’ll recall, we took-out Chinese food from Hunan Taste a few months ago.  We weren’t completely impressed with the take-out, so we knew it was only a matter of time before we did a formal sit-down ...

November 26th (Erev Thanksgiving) was the date of our latest excursion on “The Quest”. Little Dumpling is located at 252-20 Northern Blvd in Little Neck.

I fell for the flashing neon sign that announced “Chinese Food”.  Until we were seated, I didn’t notice that there was also a large selection of Japanese food and also sushi.  But, that being neither here, there, or to the far east… Mee Wen Dee, Mini Mee, and Mee, ventured to the easternmost region of New Hyde Park to try ...

Be Careful What You Wish For Our Quest to find THE Best Chinese restaurant on all of Long Island (and New York City), was a Quest to find THE most authentic Chinese food we could find.  Well, we found the MOST authentic AUTHENTIC Chinese restaurant so far on our Quest!  And one must be careful what one wishes, or Quests, ...

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 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 ...
