Asian restaurant · Maspeth

"Maspeth is now home to a laid-back spot with Asian-inspired sharing plates from partners and fine-dining chefs, Shane Kim and Mimi Chen. The ma la spice-dusted tots here are served with labneh and chive dip, and the golden crab bao is made with fluffy lotus leaf buns stuffed with snow crab and crème fraiche, and topped with yuzu tobiko. Leave room for desserts like milk tea pudding with honeycomb." - Caroline Shin, Eater Staff
