Queens Bites 2025 and onward (Flushing, Jackson Heights, Elmhurst, Astoria, LIC, Sunnyside, and beyond)

Continuing here for 2026.

Stopped by a few Flushing spots to pick up an assortment for dinner with friends.

Pancakes and dumplings from assorted Main St. fronts – the pancake stuffed with greens was particularly good, the dumplings delicious as usual.

First time trying poached chicken with Sichuan chilli oil (@vinouspleasure I did finally try it) – delectable, if a bit salty. Also pork belly braised with taro – a bit too rich for me, but flavorful. Braised chiu chow duck was not as good as usual. Char siu was lovely, and not just because I have missed it!

.

Excellent shiu mai from the takeout counter. Also very good black bean spare ribs with squash, not pictured.

Satay had an unusual abundance of treats, perhaps in anticipation of Lunar New Year?
