Regret Not Finding This Cozy Manhattan Private Kitchen Sooner π¨π»βπ³
Visited Chef Huang over the weekend β a charming husband-and-wife-run spot where the husband cooks and the wife warmly hosts. Despite having just one chef in the kitchen, the menu is impressively varied, creative, and absolutely delicious. The atmosphere is elegant yet welcoming. π« We tried the signature slow-cooked beef short ribs wrapped in flaky pastry β like a Chinese-style Wellington. Tender, flavorful, and truly memorable! The braised sea cucumber was another highlight. It was my first time ordering a full plate of sea cucumber in Manhattan, and it did not disappoint β perfectly prepared with a rich, savory sauce. Their roast duck π¦ was exceptional too, with a sauce enriched with duck fat that added an extra layer of depth and aroma. I also loved the spicy grilled fish β bubbling hot, fragrant, and perfect for chilly weather. So comforting! π² We ended with the adorable carrot cake π₯ β cute, moist, and not too sweet. A lovely finish to a fantastic meal. π Address: 635 2nd Ave, New York, NY 10016 Wish Iβd discovered this hidden gem earlier! If you enjoy intimate settings and thoughtfully crafted Chinese dishes, Chef Huang is a must-try. Loved this review? Donβt forget to like, follow, and save for more under-the-radar NYC eats!
