New China Restaurant

This has been my go-to Chinese food joint at home in Riverdale. We have some fancy sit down places in the area but this hole in the wall is still my absolute favorite. Even after all these years, they still but boxes of soda cans right in front of the window, have personal items in the store refrigerator, put their specials in permanent market on cardboard, and plaster their window with local ads. It's like a person who just gave up grooming themselves but is still relatively clean. "I'm your local Chinese food store, deal with it." My favorite dishes here are the chicken and Broccoli (all day everyday, nothing like that brown sauce!) and the chicken eggplant with garlic sauce over pork fried rice <-lunch special for maximum value. LOL autocorrect tried to call it project fried rice hahaha Compared to other establishments in rougher areas of the Bronx and greater NYC, I always felt like New China had it easy - no bulletproof glass or gated entrance to the kitchen. So as such I don't think their cutting any corners when it comes to serving a community that has supported them for probably over 15 years. Wait a clip...I just realized I've eaten enough chicken and broccoli to put their kids through college! Good gracious...
