"The first dish I saw upon walking into Yummy Tummy, a new restaurant on Northern Boulevard, in Flushing, was the first dish I ordered. The choice couldn’t have been more obvious: there was one on almost every table, a big, round platter of hacked-up blue crabs coated in a thick, pink, chili-flecked sauce and surrounded by a ring of glistening fried buns. I’d never seen it before in New York—except on a movie screen, during a showing of “Crazy Rich Asians,” in which the American protagonist is introduced to Singapore with a feast from the food stalls at one of the city’s renowned “hawker centers.”" - Hannah Goldfield
