It's much smaller, but everything there is super fresh and flavorful. Jing Fong is good, but I prefer Golden Unicorn or the place a door or two south of Jing Fong.

Good practical advice. Sounds (and looks like) like most of the stuff that was not so great had been sitting around too long. Almost inherent in the nature of those massive places that serve zillions of dishes, mostly not to-order. You'd need a table at the kitchen door to get the best stuff in its prime. By the way Lawrence, thanks for your comments on my site (Eating China) in March. Nice, comprehensive review. Good practical advice.

Wish I could join you, but life's been too busy : ). The best place is Ocean Jewel, located @ 133-30 39th Street. Take the 7 train to the last stop. The prices are a bit more expensive than Manhattan Chinatown, but worth it. Blaine is right, New Yeah Shanghai does have good food, along with NICE Green Bo across the street.

Easier to get a table than at Joe's (or even Joe's Ginger down closer to Mott), the soup dumplings are comparable. I wouldn't say better but definitely on the level, and I feel the food is tastier for a better price. Get a few things from the dim-sum menu and a couple plates and you can feed a crowd. Then hop next door for dessert. Sure the ice-cream factory is a touristy little place, and a bit overpriced, but homemade ice-cream with all the obscure flavors is worth a couple bucks. Definitely my choice for visiting friends. The Unicorn is good, as well. I’m surprised no one has mentioned the New Yeah Shanghai Deluxe, right next to the Chinatown Ice Cream Factory.

No Way! I'm also gonna have to dispute Rib Roast over Pastrami in round 2. <a href="http://nycfoodguy.com/2009/01/05/nycqueens-best-pastrami-bens-best-delivers-a-classicaly-delicious-slice/" rel="nofollow">Pastrami's a classic and the only sandwich meat left</a>. It's more of a cinderella, I don't know how it got a 7 seed. I'm pegging it at a 3 at the lowest. Round of 16....Rib roast again?? Over chuck? Rib roast over <a href="http://nycfoodguy.com/category/burgers/" rel="nofollow">burgers</a>? Never. <strong>Onto pork</strong>... cracklins over prosciutto? Good prosciutto is good prosciutto? No freakin way. This guy has obvioulsy never had good prosciutto. Baby back ribs are much more tender than spare, <a href="http://nycfoodguy.com/2008/07/16/rub-bbq-rocks-40-feast-for-two/" rel="nofollow">spare are bigger</a> but I may have to go with baby back for pure bliss. 2nd round, rather have pulled pork than roast suckling. smokey deliciousness over lacquered meat.

I’m also gonna have to dispute Rib Roast over Pastrami in round 2. Pastrami’s a classic and the only sandwich meat left. It’s more of a cinderella, I don’t know how it got a 7 seed. I’m pegging it at a 3 at the lowest.

My dim sum experience was exciting and fun because it was new not because the food was amazingly delicious. So to respond to your statement, you’re correct, I would not go to Jing Fong for a the best dim.

I would, however, be honored to join you in Flushing if you wanted to lead the way and if not, I’d love to hear your Flushing dim sum recommendations.

Thanks.
