BunNan — Restaurant in New York

Ah, Flatbush Avenue! Known for... well, being an avenue, I suppose. But nestled amongst its urban tapestry is a culinary gem that defies expectations: BunNan. This isn't just a restaurant; it's a flavor rollercoaster with seatbelts made of deliciousness.

First Impressions: Walking into BunNan is like entering a parallel universe where the laws of ordinary cuisine don't apply. The decor? Imagine if a hipster and a pirate decided to co-decorate. Quirky, with an edge of swashbuckling charm.

The Menu - A Confetti of Surprises: Now, let's talk food. The menu reads like a who’s who of the United Nations of Ingredients.

Onion Sandwiches - An Onion By Any Other Name: The onion sandwich – it's like BunNan looked at an onion and thought, "You, my friend, are destined for greatness." This isn't just an onion in a bun. It's an onion reimagined, a tear-inducing (in a good way) culinary sonnet.

Red Snapper - Fishing for Compliments: Moving on to the red snapper. I'm convinced the chef whispers motivational quotes to each fish before cooking because what arrived on my plate was a fish that believed in itself. It was cooked to perfection, with a side of "Where have you been all my life?"

Nacho Chips - Crispy Little Rebels: Nacho chips here aren't just a snack; they're a crunch-filled manifesto against the tyranny of soggy chips. Each bite is a crisp rebellion, leading the charge with a battle cry of deliciousness.

I had the plantain fries. The food was pretty good, nice and flavorful. My only complaint is that I ordered the fries with chicken and was given pork instead without them telling me whether or not the chicken was not an available option. I am not really a pork lover, as a matter of fact I rarely eat pork at all, and would never order for takeout. They lost a star for that. They lost the second star because they did not have change. Cashier made it seem like she did me a favor by giving me the change they had available instead of my exact change. Thank goodness it was only a about 30¢ difference. I believe they accept card, so that may be an easier option, but they still should be prepared. The atmosphere of the place could be much better. The stall is in a very small food court with limit tables, which seemed to be occupied by people who were not eating. It would probably be best if you took your food to go.I would try the food again though, hopefully they work out those small kinks. I hope they get more foot traffic because the place definitely has potential and a great social...

I ordered online and it said my order would be ready in 20 mins. I got there about 30 mins later and it took a while for anyone to even help me. (They were busy, so I’ll give them that). I told them I ordered online and they told me it would be another 20 mins till my order was ready, so it took about an hour to get some griot and jerk chicken. Just keep that in mind, order ahead of time.

The food was not bad, it was definitely edible, however maybe it was just that day but the griot did not have the griot flavor I was expecting, as well as the plantain. The plantain seemed to be missing salt and the fact that it’s pressed so thin takes away from it. The pikliz, didn’t have that kick to it. The Griot was very oily.

The staff was very nice, so that’s a plus. I really enjoy supporting my people, however, without honest reviews we can’t better ourselves.

Overall, I personally would not go out of my way again to order from here. But I love what they are doing and they have people with the right attitude...
