We took the congee out for a whirl and it also failed the taste test not reaching the typical, authentically flavoured congee you get in a food hall in the East. They were too sweet and there just wasn't those little junks of flavoursome meat I'm used to.

Ranked 1,262 of 14,182 Restaurants in New York City. The prawn/shrimp dumplings and the pork and peanut dumplings were probably the most tasty but they were really too salty. 202 Centre Street, New York City, NY 10013-5291 (Downtown Manhattan (Downtown)) +1 21. The dumplings were too glutinous and the taste was somewhat muted. The overall view was that this meal was only just average. I knew that it meant a lot to the local Chinese people and the Chinese community. Our main task this lunch was to tackle the dumplings and road test the bbq pork buns. Resy: Were you surprised by how emotional people were about the closing of Jing Fong’s 20 Elizabeth Street location Truman Lam: I was definitely a little bit surprised. From the street, the restaurant doesn't look that special but after the long escalator ride you arrive at what looks like a promising Cantonese restaurant. Dim sum here is made to order and has become a popular spot, so expect a wait on, especially on the weekends. First opened in 1920, Nom Wah is New York Citys oldest dim sum parlor still in operation.

It's hard to review a good yum cha when you come from Sydney, which arguably has the best yum cha available anywhere, but Jing Fong is recommended for its yum cha, so we went. 13 Doyers St, New York, NY 10013-5104, USA.
