New York City's 12 Best New Dishes Of 2022 - New York - The Infatuation

"This dessert is the best dish at Wenwen, a Taiwanese spot in Greenpoint that’s the sister restaurant to 886. It's also one of the most interesting things on the menu. Black sesame-stuffed tangyuan comes with vanilla ice cream and condensed milk, which all seems pretty normal. But the tangyuan is fried like tempura, and once you factor in the dehydrated peanut butter, garlic chives, and cilantro, you have a truly unique dessert. The creamy, crunchy, and herb-y components somehow make perfect sense together. This dessert deserves an Oscar, a Grammy, the NBA MVP trophy, and any other accolade you can think of." - carina finn koeppicus, neha talreja, kenny yang
