"I call Hangawi my favorite restaurant in New York, maybe anywhere: we had the vegetarian dumplings (steamed, though I prefer the fried), the vermicelli delight (a blend of sweet-potato noodles and vegetables), the combination pancakes (leek, kimchi-mushroom, and kabocha pumpkin with mung beans) which were flavorful and light, and the best dish of all — crispy mushroom in sweet-and-sour sauce — which is to die for, with a wonderful balance of sweet and sour and a delicately fried coating that gives the mushroom a nutty flavor." - Chris Crowley
