New York's East Village | Average $20‼️

Highly Instagrammable Chinese Food with Maximum Flavor! Why didn’t I discover this hidden gem in the East Village earlier?😭 I was already full but couldn’t resist eating bowl after bowl… Every dish is super, super, super delicious! Don’t miss the black truffle dish, please! 💯 Black Truffle Fried Rice It’s incredibly aromatic! I just couldn’t stop eating bite after bite. The flavor is so rich and intense—definitely a must-order! 💯 Colorful Soup Dumplings The colors are just too soothing and beautiful! The pastel shades look amazing under the sunlight. They have a delicious broth inside and come with a dipping sauce. 💯 Shanghai Thick Noodles The seasoning is spot-on—so delicious! The noodles are perfectly chewy. Highly recommended! 🐙 Crispy Fried Octopus Legs They’re super crispy and make a perfect appetizer with drinks. The spicy mayo dipping sauce is amazing! 🍶 I also ordered sake, which was really good! The staff, both the guy and the girl, were super friendly and provided excellent service. Overall, this place is amazing—I could eat here every day!😍 📍 The Bao 13 St Marks Pl, New York, NY 10003 #NewYork 🗽 #NYCDining 🍔
