🍖 Wah Fung Fast Food: NYC's Char Siu Chaos 🥢

This Chinatown legend blew up on TikTok/IG last year—now it’s always packed. 🔥 Want proof? Scroll NYC food videos and BAM—Wah Fung’s roast meats dominate. 🕒 The Line: At 3:30 PM on a Wednesday, 20 people deep. Easy 10–15 min wait, right? 🤣 Nope. Took 40+ mins! Staff moves slower than a sloth on sedatives. 🐌 💬 Queue Buddies: Met a Dominican big brother who’s worked nearby for 10+ years. “I come here DAILY,” he groaned. “ But since this place went viral? I wait FOREVER.” 😩 His tip? Skip the chicken (too dry) and go for the Pork Belly. Sold! 🐷 🤯 Ordering Mayhem: Finally at the counter: “Pork Belly, please!” The owner: “You want PORK or PIG?” 😵💫 Turns out: Pig = Crispy skin roast pork 🔥 Pork = Char siu (honey-glazed) Lesson learned! 🤣 Also, load up on ginger sauce—it’s life-changing. 🧄 🍱 The Verdict: Taste? 👌 Price? Unbeatable ($5–8 for giant portions). But… 40 mins for a meal? On a WEEKDAY? 😱 My pork belly had more fat than meat. No wonder the big brother loved it—he’s a full-fat king! 🤴 📍 Wah Fung 79 Chrystie St, NYC. Worth it? Only if you’ve got time to burn. 🔥 #NYCFood #CharSiu #ChinatownVibes #FoodComa
