NYC's Iconic Lobster Cantonese... Hidden Gem in NY Chinatown since 1975 at Hop Lee's

On a trip to New York city, I was grateful to get to connect with Steve who took me around the NYC Chinatown area exploring the great places to visit and even more importantly, the great places to eat. From dim sum, to the most delightful tofu pudding (at $2 only!), it was a great day being the tourist. Along the visit, he introduced me to one of New Yorks oldest Chinese Restaurants and definitely his favorite, Hop Lee on 16 Mott street.

While we were too full that day for another meal, I decided to go back and give it a try and luckily, I got reinforcements in the form of new friends Larry and Annie! A the Classic Chinese Restaurant, typically a group of people are needed to enjoy a family style meal and the meal at Hop Lee certainly did not disappoint. And in typical New York style, the restaurant is tucked away in Chinatown in a basement; a hard to find hidden spot with great food -- this is my type of place.

From the fresh produce being cooked up like the pea shoots to the iconic classic dishes native to New York such as the Cantonese Lobster, it was a great meal offer a new dimension to the Chinese cuisine. Great meal, Great service and Great company. If you're in the New York area and would like to go, drop me a line and I'll arrange for Larry and Annie to join if help is needed!
