✨Lunar Jianghu Cuisine | One of NYC’s Top Chinese Restaurants✨
Stopped by Lunar again for lunch — hands down one of my favorite Chinese spots in the city! 🏙️ The interior is chic and moody, with soft, warm lighting that makes you want to settle in, order a spread of fiery dishes, and pair it all with a refreshing cocktail. 🍸 Here’s what we feasted on today: Sichuan Pepper Duck 🦆: A chilled appetizer bursting with aromatic numbing spices. So addictive, we kept reaching for more! Fresh Chili Steamed Fish 🐟: Tender, flaky fish in a vibrant chili broth — warming and deeply satisfying. We finished the whole fish in minutes! Cumin Lamb Ribs: Crispy on the outside, juicy inside, with a bold cumin and pepper kick. Perfect with a sip of cocktail! Ginger & Pepper Duck: Bolder and richer than the Sichuan pepper version — a true jianghu (rebellious, bold-flavored) dish with a spicy, ginger-forward punch. Black Truffle Fried Rice: My go-to order every time — fragrant, glossy, and utterly irresistible. Yuzu Matcha Opera Cake 🍰: A light, elegant finish with a balance of bitter matcha and tangy yuzu — the perfect cleanse after a spicy meal. Their cocktails are consistently smooth and fruity — slightly sweet but oh-so-easy to sip. 🍹 Lunar is the kind of place you visit once and already dream of returning. Refined yet full of soul — a real gem in Manhattan! 💎 📍 12 E 37th St, New York, NY 10016 If you enjoyed this review, don’t forget to like, follow, and save — I’ll keep sharing the best of NYC eats & vibes! 😘 #NYCFood #LunarNYC #ChineseCuisine #SpicyLovers #NYCDining
