| - A chilly Wednesday night. 11:00pm. Stomach is growling. What the hell do you go to eat?
Why of course... the answer is very obvious: Chinese food!
Now begs the question, who is the reigning king of late night Chinese food? There are many to choose from in the Chinatown district. But to me, they are all contenders. The only logical choice is The New Ho King! There is no question in my mind that they are the undisputed champion of late night MSG gorge fest.
Don't mind their horrible neon signs and white plastic bag covered tables, because this place knows their food (look next door, and you will notice the restaurant is empty). Speaking of the white plastic table covers, it is actually a really efficient way to clear off the table for the next group hovering over you while you stuff your face. Watch and learn.. you might even want to do this for your own crib.
OK let's stop fucking around. Time to discuss food.
Sweet Chicken Corn Soup! You should always start your meal here with a bowl of this stuff, especially in the winter. When they said "soul food" I am pretty sure this is what they were referring to (who is they? I don't know)
Chicken in Hot Pot? Oooh yeah. Ask for it for bone in (mixed dark & white), or bone out and white meat only. Both are excellent. Nicely caramelized on the outside, tossed with cooked down scallions.
Beef with rice noodle, dry style. Come on. Smokey, beefy, salty... if you don't like this stuff, there is something wrong with you.
Deep fried Calamari! Yeah.. that is the shit! Order it extra spicy for even more kick.
You also can't pass up on their Cantonese Chow Mien. Super crunchy fried noodles, topped with chicken, shrimp, pork and squid. And even some vegetables. Every food group covered. Done.
Mapo Tofu. Order it vegetarian. It owns! Nice classic schezwan flavours here. Lots of tofu.. so it might even be good for you.
Shrimp in Lobster Sauce. Drizzle this masterpiece on all over of your.....
TNHK's fried lice.. sorry, rice, is also legendary status. Really, get whatever you want. Beef, chicken, pork, mushroom, vegetable... it's all good in the hood here. They even have something called fukken riced rice. Can someone try this and report back? Tks.
Don't be shy and order a couple bottles of Tsingtao beer for everyone at the table, because you will need it at the end of your meal after all the grease and salt you have consumed.
It's so bad... but so damn good.
