Chinatown's oldest Dim Sum house. They've traded metal carts for paper cards, so bring your reading glasses. The Salt & Pepper Spare Rib has earned a check mark. Add a pot of tea to any meal for $1!
They have a different flavor of bubble tea for $2 every day. Go on Saturday for the pudding milk tea!
SO MANY different hand-pulled noodles! Order them pan-fried and extra wide with beef, then blanket it with hot chili oil. So chewy a wookie would eat it (yep).
Every New Yorker has their food mistress, and Vanessa on Eldridge is one of the most addictive. Dollar dumplings, buns, and pancakes will keep you faithful.
My favorite Bubble Teas in Chinatown! Try some of the more innovative flavors; they change them all the time. If you're hungry, keep it tea-themed and order the Green Tea Noodles.
You'll have to trek north of Canal to find Nyonya, but it's worth twice the walk. Best Malaysian in Chinatown by a long shot, and one of very few to serve fresh coconut water straight from the source.

"The last time I stopped in the Marie’s denizens were shrieking through ‘Pippin’ with such conviction that I found myself singing along, despite being ignorant of the lyrics." - Simon Doonan, author Leer más.
Completely lives up to its hype. Crab toast was incredible, mushroom pizza made me realize that I've been eating crap all my life, and every bite of the salted caramel sundae sent me to heaven.
Steamed eggs will ruin eggs for you forever because you won't want them any other way again. Come early, sit at the bar, have an espresso, don't miss the waffle sandwich either.
