My second time patronizing them in new york city chinatown. The salted chicken rice is damn damn good. Will definitely get them again when im back in newyork. The meicai kou rou is decent and the steamed pork spareribs is exceptional too! The flavour is marinated enough and the meat is soft. Prices for meesum is absolutely fair and please head over if you are around the vicinity. They have been here for a very long time if you look at the furnishings in the store. Highly recommended for e fresh food and old school vibes! :)

This is old Chinatown! No frills lunch counter, cash only, delicious food. Came here for a Sunday comedy show which was great. During the week this is a regular breakfast and lunch counter where OG neighborhood folk come for authentic, cheap quick bites. They are embracing these special events now too to keep up with rising rents. The sauteed cauliflower and the salted chicken were so incredibly delicious. The congee was extra tasty. Bao and dumplings were so good too. I need to come back again. Hope Mee Sum stays for a long time

This place all about food as utility. Nothing fanciful. Its basic value for money. Food choices are mostly a mix of basic cantonese diner style staples. The taste isnt bad but its not really anything to recommend either. Rice dumplings, rice rolls, porridge, pork and shrimp dim sum dishes were slightly below average. The grilled fish was expensive $13 for a 9 inch grilled fish. Taste wise, its fine. Nothing to write home about. For the curious who wants to experience a typical Hong Kong diner feel, this is probably one of the last places in Chinatown to do it.
