Carol's Bun - New York City

I love speaking Cantonese with the aunties working. Authentic Cantonese

This hole in the wall eatery has been a reliable lunch/dinner spot by the F train for yeaaars. When I was younger my fam would always pick up an order of the general tso's chicken for dinner. I finally got to try a Too Good To Go box here this weekend, and it was pretty decent! A jam packed box for only $4.99 got me fried rice (though I would've preferred white rice), veggies, chicken, general tso's, and steamed minced pork. Definitely enough for two to share! I have to say there must be some msg in the food as I felt pretty thirsty after this meal. Still, a really solid option a casual, affordable lunch box.

Combo rich lunch and small price. Soy fried delicious, melting and full of taste.

I haven't been here, but judging from the pictures of the architecture I'm just curious if the owners live upstairs from the restaurant. Does anyone know? Thanks!

Excellent value: economical, fast, no frills Tasty Chinese Food. Locals tradesmen eat here: Clue, Quality.Outside seating is one small shared bench.
