Chinese Restaurant Reviews – 2013 2013 was quite the year!!  The Chinese Quest was formed in late February.  Five Jewish guys got together over, what else, Chinese food.  And they argued (that’s how Jews talk) where the best Chinese restaurant was on Long Island.  And you know something?  They couldn’t agree! So, they made a pact.  And formed a Quest. ...

Jonesing for Jew Food Having withdrawal symptoms suffered as a result of not being able to join Mee brothers at P.F. Chang’s this past Wednesday, I was clearly craving some Chinese food.  Especially with it being so close to Christmas too!  And yes… yes, I will be having Chinese food Christmas Eve.

The Promised Land! After two very dissappointing restaurants (Kwong Ming & The Orchid), we decided to venture to a place with a very solid reputation. It’s not exactly in Nassau/Suffolk, but nevertheless its still on the “Island of Long”. Joe’s Shanghai is located at 136-21 37th Ave. in Flushing. Well, lets just say: The Christians have their Vatican, The Muslims ...

We Thought We Were in China! [EDIT:  Joe’s Shanghai in Flushing closed last year.  You can visit them in Manhattan and let us know how it is!!] Our Quest to find the BEST Chinese Restaurant on all of Long Island took us tonight to virgin territories.  Our Crusade crossed the veritable dividing line between Nassau County (“Long Island”), and Queens ...

Time is money! Yes, the Chinese Quest is all about finding you the best Chinese restaurant on all of Long Island. But, still, we are Jews. Read more!

Counter Point I would  like to add a personal commentary to my Brother Magnum’s very eloquent description of our most recent Quest to Kwong Ming in Wantagh.  While I am often described as the “silent” Mee, there is sometimes a need to speak up so that a balanced commentary is achieved. Yes, Kwong Ming is not going to go down ...
