Great service. Speaks English. Takes credit cards but with service charge ($4 for $52 of purchase). Cold cases for take home bao. EXCELLENT bai tang gao (sweet white rice cake), super fresh and just the right amount of sweetness. Really great prices compared to others. Clean for Chinatown. Very busy.

This is a little Chinese bakery that happens to have some dim sum options also. What's notable about them is their prices which are dirt cheap even by Chinese bakery standards. From cheapo buns and frozen dumplings to 3 to $4 rice rolls/cheung fun, you can find a lot for a little here. There are also wife cakes (i.e. melon cakes) which are $6 for a box of 8 along with other similar cakes. Sure the quality isn't the best and there was a better cheap bakery until it closed (New Kamboat [RIP],) but it's hard to complain. My favorite thing here is actually one of the more expensive stuff here. They sell durian cakes for $3.75 or it's slightly more for one with a salted egg in it. You can also buy a box for $21 but I'm not exactly sure how many come in a box but I presume it's six which would save around $1.50. In terms of the pastry itself, it is pretty crumbly and the durian inside has enough funk to it without being overly so. The salted egg one adds some extra complexity but I prefer the one with the durian only for more pure flavor. If there was another spot that sold either of these buns in this Chinatown, I would compare but I'm unaware of any other spot selling this delicious product. Would recommend for durian fans. Upper 3 for the specialty. Mid/low 3 for everything else but bumped up because the reasonable prices.

Love this place. I buy bags of frozen dumplings here and they're yummy. I also love their glutinous rice dumpling soup! Very reasonably priced too.

This is my sisters favorite place to go every time we are in the area. I have been here a couple of times and everytime this place has been very crowded and busy. They offer frozen buns, shumai, and other dim sum goodies which you can steam or fry at home. I bought a bag of frozen pork and chive dumplings. My sister came and picked up some frozen wontons, sumai, and taro cake. They also have fresh buns and some cooked dim sum, plus fresh rice noodles available. This place is definitely a dive but it is a busy place.

Go to for fast, cheap, deliciousness in Chinatown Standard order shu-Mai (4 for $3.50); wonton soup ($6.75), enough for 2 people - breakfast of champions after a long NY night

I always wish I had more room in my cooler bag every time I come here when visiting NY. Amazing frozen dumplings that I bring back to California (Yes I fly with a cooler bag just for these dumplings), and the rice rolls and fresh buns are super tasty. Bring cash and a big bag to carry everything, enjoy there is a park near there to eat at.

It was fun to explore NY Chinatown & sample various tasty treats. This inconspicuous cafe/bakery offered basic but solid southern style breakfast items & pastries. We were lured by the prospect of relishing some fresh grounded rice milk (米槳), but unfortunetely it was not avail. We settled for a steamed bun & it was good. The bun was gigantic, the dough was airy & fluffy. Fillings consisted of well seasoned ground pork, small quail egg & a slice of Cantonese sausage. The filling was still moist & piping hot.
