East Met West — Restaurant in New York

Ive been getting chinese take out weekly from this place despite the fact that the owner conveniently forgets how much the food is and tries to over charge me. A couple of times he forgot to give me change and i had to remind him. The last straw was when i used the ATM on the premises to get cash out to pay for the food. I took out $40. The food cost $8. The 2 $20 bills were crisp and stuck together. As he was closing the register, I immediately realized that i mistakenly gave him $40 and told him so. He ignored me and closed the register and then accused me, a long time, regular customer of trying to rob him. It was obvious he knew that he took the 2 $20s - he refused to count the register. He's rude and a thief. The food is not even that good. The only reason i was going there was because it is 1 block from where i live and i was being lazy. Its not worth it - there are other places with better food and better service who wont...

someone on doordash recommended the singapore mei fun as the best they’ve ever had so i decided to order it today— and i have to agree a hundred times over.

very generous portioning, flavorfully seasoned noodles with a kick of curry, crunchy stir fried veggies, and a heaping variety of bbq pork, shrimp, chicken, and imitation crab.

the portion is so generous you could easily save half of this to enjoy later. but this was giving me so much unadulterated joy that i couldn’t stop myself.

every piece of meat is perfectly cooked. the bbq pork has an unctuous mix of lean and fat. the shrimp is juicy. i have to give my biggest compliments to the chef: you are an artist of the highest order.

it’s a sunny day in brooklyn today, and even though my paycheck says otherwise, for a moment, i feel like as though i am the richest person in williamsburg. thank you, east met west....

My parents place is in NJ and I live in Williamsburg now. Always looking for a place that ticks the boxes in taste. This is by far the best and most comparable to my parents restaurant.

The 3-4 star Chinese restaurants are always the hole in the wall gems. If you’re here for the food and less decor and average service. Honestly I just only order take out/delivery/seamless. This is the place.

If you know about Garden Kitchen on Grand that recently closed, this place would make you quite happy!!
