This Flushing Food Court Will Transport You To Asia

One of the best food courts in the city sits in the lower level of this huge Flushing mall, with 32 different food vendors featuring diverse cuisine from all over Asia. From Chinese dumplings and Thai food to chicken wings and Japanese snacks, you really can't go wrong. Order a small selection from a bunch of vendors and pick your favorites.

You might be surprised at the calm energy of Fang Gourmet Tea. This quiet oasis in the back of a bustling Flushing mini-mall offers both flavored and fine teas, many of which are difficult to find in the states. Try a tea tasting together—you'll steep the same tea leaves five times, experiencing the different levels of flavor in each pour. You can even purchase fine tea-ware to take the experience home.
