"Flor de Mayo is a Chino Latino mini-chain with two locations on the UWS, and one in Washington Heights. The Washington Heights location is particularly good for uptown group dinners, with pitchers of beer, chicken and chaufa combo platters. It has several flat-screen TVs playing old Justin Timberlake songs, which should maybe be a requirement for all group hangs. Get an order of fried rice and a heaping plate of lomo saltado, and don’t be afraid to get out of your seat and dance when “Rock Your Body” comes on." - neha talreja, willa moore, carlo mantuano
