Last Day of New York Vacation
I decided to spend the last day of my New York vacation in Flushing (Chinatown) with friends. To my surprise the area looked as busy as Chinatown in Manhattan. Chinese restaurants all over the place. New York is not the same as I left it years ago.
I asked my friends to order some exotic Chinese foods, but not the most exotic. I wanted to see if there was something I never tried before that would taste great, to be honest I felt a little adventurous. So I took a gamble.
The selection looked great, Hot Baked Fish, Veggie Noodles, Escargot, Skin on Shrimp, and some other foods I do not recall what the names were. Mind you these are the names loosely translated to English.
Escargot, was the dish I was looking for, I never tasted it before, I always wanted to, but the idea of eating snails never appealed to me. Boy I was so wrong, this was my biggest surprise, the flavour and taste were amazing. It was so good I can not put it in words. I was not the only judge at the table, my little princess kept asking for Escargot, while enjoying her noodles. I am teaching her to try exotic foods early so she would not get used to eating junk.
The restaurant we visited New Shanghai Tan Restaurant, uses fresh seafood cooked to order, it's located at 135-20 40th Rd. Flushing NY. If you are ever in NY, I recommend you try it.
good chinese foods are awesome. i can see you really enjoyed your vacation. nyc the capital of the world

Hot Baked Fish, Veggie Noodles, Escargot, Skin on Shrimp, and some other foods I do not recall what the names were. All these dishes are awesome and i have tried those all, Escargot is the best of these all and stands out because of its great taste and serving hospitality.
A very good taste @joseph your soul is an adventurous spirit and you are the type of person who likes with something new, it is good fun indeed. I also really like about the new things I hope your holiday is always fun. I am now following you, and I hope you also want to follow me @riezky best regard steemit from indonesia
@joseph so you're the guy on the 1st pic?
I was wondering what you look like

Nice post. Flushing is a very eclectic place. My spouse and I lived a few blocks from Main Street, Flushing for 16 years. We suffered a huge loss, our cats and home in a fire. Flushing is similar to China Town, but Chinatown is located in lower Manhattan. Not Queens. Flushing , Queens, has some great places like The Town Hall and Arts Center. The Old Quaker House near Main Street (about 4 blocks) is one of the first Quaker homes. I'm glad you and your family enjoyed it!
I love Chinese food and it's looks good here. I'm scared to try escargot though, I don't know perhaps one day I will brave enough to try it.
very delicious
Looks yummy, fun post to share
Life is to be shared and enjoyed - Looks like you are succeeding at both :)

One of the best kitchen of the world! Chinese cuisine!
Escargot soup or with garlic butter is amazing too dear!
