If you’re going to take a bite out of the Big Apple, you’d better start in Queens. With over 150 countries represented and 138 languages spoken, the borough is the most ethnically diverse urban area in the entire world-and arguably the most delicious. From brilliantly hued rice dumplings in Flushing to a three-pound torta in Corona, we sure hope you’re hungry for this.

My dad had a Bodega almost at the corner of Rosevelt and Junction Blvd and I remember mingling with people from all over the world, back then (late 80’s) I remember different races used to keep to themselves, you had the Asians in one place, the Italians in another, the Colombians. There’s was lots of racial tension. I stand by this cuz I lived it.
