Super Cheap, Super Tasty Chinatown Food Walk

Posted on 4th | Posted by admin in Food and Drink

Chinese Lunar New Year coming up this Sunday. Year of the pig, or “DingHai.” Chinatown is not how it was. In the old, pre-Giuliani days — we’re talking 1988 — we stupidly wandered down Mott Street during the absolute climax of the celebration (the climax, in contrast to our one-second toaster pops, lasted a mind-blowing 48 hours), bottle rockets, cherry bombs, M-80s missing our eyes by nano-meters–total lawlessness. More perilous than the old July 4ths (again, pre-Giuliani). These days, we’re lucky to catch a dragon dance team from the local senior citizens center. Still, Chinatown food is better — and cheaper — than ever. We took the following walk, never spending more than a buck on any item. Bring a friend and gorge.
