Since today was raining, I took a walk to clear my head and did a good deal of shopping in the store that sits on Mulberry street (cross streets Bayard and Canal).
By either viewing their website or their paper guide edition of their directory, you can navigate Chinatown with ease. Although some businesses do pay for advertising on their site and directory, many are listed free.
Every now and then I like going to Kobma. It’s good if you sorta want something a little different than your normal Chinatown food.
You can get things like spaghetti and meat sauce . What’s funny is that for some reason, these “American/Italian” dishes still taste a hint Chinese. It’s still yummy though.
When the shop in the middle of the block became vacant, they gutted it. Of course, we all assumed that it would be another Chinese restaurant. Much to my surprise, it turned into a second meat market on Bayard street.
The big Chinese New Year Parade in Chinatown has historically been held the following Sunday after the first Sunday of the New Year. It’s a little confusing, I know. Nobody really announced this or put this fact out there either. The only reason I know this is because my shop has to get its red envelopes ready for the lion dancers.
