NYC Heads: Are all Chinese takeout spots closed in your area?

[CashmereThoughts]

many chinese restaurants won't make it due to stigma

many of them was on their way out anyway. Chinese immigrants aren’t poor second class citizens the way they used to be anymore. Their children are highly educated and well off and running restaurants are no longer a necessity for survival.

Chinese restaurants are closing. That’s a good thing, the owners say. | Boston.com

Also quick observation... why is it that I never see Asians eat at Chinese restaurants that they love placing in our communities?

I have seen a few Asians ordering from a few different Chinese spots that i have been to, mostly in the better areas that have other fast food areas but not the hood unless it's near a hospital or downtown area.

@morris A1 Asian Fusion is open. The usual; takeout and delivery only.

they only stopped production because they are not deemed essential had nothing to do with the name or lack of sales

You right. Pardon my ignorance.

All of them but I'm going to tell you a secret. Most of these Chinese places are closing down in the next 20 years anyway. Most of these owners have kids who don't want to be in the business at all. The days of having a Chinese spot on every block in NY/NJ is coming to an end, only the best spots will survive.

Been eating at this Jamaican joint for my takeout needs and this soul food joint in Irvington.

funny thing is, most those places are STILL run by Chinese immigrants. Only the person taking the orders is English speaking.

There's one on Lenox Ave. where they seemed to change front desk person every 4 years

I was reading that even Mc'Donald's style Panda Express closed as well (albeit not permanently)

You're probably eating some homemade shyt that's gonna clog the fukk outta your arteries right now, but cool.



They're essential to every hood. When all these other spots wanna close early, guess who was gonna stay open all night? Them and habibi at the deli.


Um, yeah. All the nasty ass shyt y'all ate from your local Chinese spot that was there for you when your mama didn't wanna cook that night and NOW you're worried about what's in the food? If your Chicken Wings were really bat clit this entire time, well guess what? Bat clit kept you fed on those cold nights.

Support your local Chinese food store when they come back, unless you tryna get healthy.

No.

Well, thats good to hear

Chinese spots are overrated and you never see the owners or the chefs eating the food.

I have but the one thing that stood out is they don't put the sauces on the food.

They know how to cook it at home, and it’s the REAL Asian food.

And how many of them actually live in those neighborhoods?

I have, the little waitress chicks at the buffet would sit down and eat before it got busy, but they would odd random things like the seaweed salad.

I also noticed that the Indian tech dudes would small bowls of soup at the indian buffets, not large plates of curry and rice like everyone else.

There is one open in Carnasie near the train station
