I, >Love this place >MUCH!; they have PRETTY good tastes; &, really, cost Little! My reasons, partly, are: since, a, number of the, foods that can be gotten here, are not, only, >just edible; they are, also: >Pretty Darn Good; &, their prices, Are, Also: a, >pretty >darn >good value; their stuff is well presented; well made; &, done nicely, in that they are open to doing some changes from the menu, to some dishes; as suits my own preferences; &, Very nicely, their days; &, hours, are noticeably longer, than mostly all other consumable foods vendors, in this neighborhood!!!!
But: on the other hand, relatively speaking; here, they are: >>>>Not so sanitary; &, >>>>Not so clean;...however, sadly, that is true, in almost all of: the, Chinese places, in: Flushing; Chinatown; &, Sunset Park; &, in fact, right after eating; whilst walking home; I, vomited; &, some of what's eaten in this mall; &, in chinatown can be pretty disgusting.
More Importantly, though, all personnel, from the Many mini shops, in this eateries' same locations; have No; real English skills; >Or: >>very little English abilities; here; &, nearly everywhere, in: this, Flushing area; &, other similar, Ethnic; &, predominately: Asian neighborhoods; Plus: Much, reprehensible; repugnant; UnFair; Unthinkable; Unacceptable; Grotesque; Heinously Objectionable: Racial >>>Prejudice; towards almost All whom are Non-Asian; &, more specifically; Non-Chinese; &, little ventilation; making high; Hot temperatures; &: stale, stinky, sticky, oily, greasy, stuffiness; w/: Very, tight; unsafe; >Dangerous; claustrophobic; cramped quarters; &: cheap; &: fairly limited beverage; &, food options of too limited choices; as the, normal, standard, conditions;...Plus: as well, the repulsive habits of many customers here; which are also, a, big: turn-off.
However, good values; somewhat extended hours; an, ability to get here, easily, by public transportation; &, an, owner, that is ok; dealing, w/: people who have: no Chinese lingual skills; which is usually, the case, for MANY visitors; &, travelers, passing thru, transiently; even in many of these cases, in Flushing; where money; &, sales are very quickly demanded; an, area; &, where: little to NO explanations; talk; discussion; or: real interactions of nearly ANY meaningful sort, occur; so, quite a few folks, have ways to get by; &, to manage; &, to cope, one way; or: another. There are Massive expectations dumped on customers; w/: typical Chinese combativenesses; &, >>Aggessions; all over this neighborhood; &, routinely VERY >>>POOR customer service; that is: SO Bad; THAT: frankly: IT IS: flatly, Non-Existant; IN >>>NEARLY EVERY SINGLE CASE; all over these strongly ethnic regions, like: Jackson Heights; Washington Heights; many parts of The Bronx; Etc! This is due to vastly differing lingual capacities; significant variances in culturalities; educational backgrounds; economic levels; Etc. But, to those who say: that this is due, totally to the lackings of English ability; I know: that those are MERELY FAKE EXCUSES!!!!!. Customer friendliness, Is: VERY RARELY: ever seen, here, in this community. Money >Is the Sole interest; NOT customer satisfactions. That being said, this place, has better food; better service; more care; more customer interest; better conditions; better prices; better selection; better cross cultural abilities; has aquired more adaptability; &, more assimilation related skills; Etc., than most; at better practical terms; with more convenience; &, w/: more flexibly interesting menu, so as, to appeal to a cross-cultural customer base; which they also: deliver cooked orders to, faster; w/: better understanding; more English abilities; &, more interest to at least try to serve Non-Chinese folks; than most locales, to be found, in: all of: the, current downtown Flushing; &, Main Street region; which quite often includes: actual, outright hostilities; aggressive combativeness; &, violence; toward Any who are Non-Chinese; &, Non-Koreans; &, Non-Asiatics, too.
