King of Northeastern Boston cuisine? -Go Chi
🍖 Go Chi: Boston’s Best Northeastern Chinese Food? My Dongbei Friend Approves I’d seen Go Chi all over social media, and my Northeast Chinese classmate (the one into posture training) swears it’s Boston’s top spot for (Dongbei cuisine). I dragged my Dongbei friend along to test it—and we left impressed. 🌟 The Standouts Braised Spare Ribs: 🐷 Redemption! After a bad experience with spare ribs at another spot, I was nervous—but these were fantastic. Tender, fall-off-the-bone meat soaked in savory sauce, with just enough spice. Easy to gnaw on, full of flavor—no regrets. Eggplant with Crispy Pork Strips: 🍆 A tough call between this and sweet-and-sour pork, but we chose right. The eggplant is fried to a crisp (you barely recognize it’s eggplant), and the pork strips have a crunchy coating slathered in thick, tangy sauce. It’s rich, slightly oily, and so satisfying. 😊 Solid, But Mild Sour Cabbage with Vermicelli: 🥢 The “lightest” of the three dishes—less tangy than homemade versions (which my friend appreciated). It’s a good palate cleanser, but not as bold as I prefer. Still, it’s comforting in that “home-cooked” way. ✨ The Best Part: Portions Huge. Two people, three dishes, and we each took home two containers. These portions easily feed four—perfect for sharing (or leftovers for days). Vibe: Casual, no-frills, with that “mom-and-pop” warmth. You can tell it’s a local favorite. Verdict: Worth the hype. My Dongbei friend gave it a thumbs-up, and I’m already planning a return trip for . 📍 Go Chi (Check the address—worth tracking down!) #BostonNortheasternFood #DongbeiCuisine #ComfortFood
