22 Top Asian Snacks in NYC - Eater NY

"In the city’s notably strong pork bun game, this Bayard Street mainstay is a top competitor. Though the small Chinatown bakery also sells steamed buns with chicken and egg yolk, it’s the roast pork option that has won the hearts of New Yorkers for years. Sold for just $1.25 each, these golden, buttery buns encase a filling of hot, rich, fatty pork and a salty-sweet sauce. Also on the menu are beef rice noodles and a simple congee. In old-school Chinatown fashion, service is no-frills, and payment is cash-only." - Dan Q. Dao
