Happy Rice Noodles! Super delicious beef dumplings
🥢 Hei Ji Cheong Fun: Quincy’s Hidden Gem—Crispy Beef Tongue Pastries (and a Cat Thief) Snapped a photo, turned around, and bam—my cat stole a bite of the (beef tongue pastry). Had to chop off that half, but even the tiny piece I got? Worth it. This spot’s a keeper, tucked next to the coconut jelly shop at 667 Hancock St, Quincy (Google Maps might miss it, but trust the “next to coconut jelly” hint). 🌟 The Must-Buy: Beef Tongue Pastry Think: A crispy, flaky fried dough—light, buttery, and not greasy at all. It’s savory with a hint of sweetness, like the best churro’s savory cousin. Perfect with a cup of tea, and so addictive I’m already plotting my return (with a cat-proof container). 🥢 Solid Side: Cilantro Beef Cheong Fun Thin, silky rice rolls (cheong fun) filled with tender beef and fresh cilantro. The rice skin is excellent—soft, not rubbery—but fair warning: The beef portion is on the smaller side. Still, the sauce (a savory-sweet soy glaze) ties it all together. 🐱 Pro Tip Keep an eye on your food—apparently, even cats can’t resist that pastry. Next trip: Grab a coconut jelly from next door, then sprint back for two beef tongue pastries (one for me, one to hide from the cat). #QuincyEats #BostonChineseFood #HiddenTreats
