The food in New York City gets better and better. This time, I'm visiting the Chinatown area in New York and thanks to all the suggestion from everyone to visit the Chinatown in Flushing, Queens. While the Chinatown in Manhattan was quite the sight, the places in Flushing, Queens were outstanding.
I got a chance to visit a buffet in the Flushing, Queens area... Great price, great seafood, and more importantly great people... Oh yes, and the unlimited Peking Duck was quite impressive as well.
Some useful links:
The Buffet NY Restaurant:
• Website: www.thebuffet-...
• Cost: $50 for the Dinner Seafood Buffet
• Address: 20-07 127th St 4th floor, Queens, NY 11356, United States
Thank you to you all for joining on this unexpected and welcomed discovery! Happy dining everyone!

New subscriber here! I just had to say you are awesome. You’re so polite and kind to everyone, you go out of your way to thank staff for the food and service, you seem like a genuinely good guy. You’re life must be filled with friends - I know I’d want to hang out and buffet hop with you! Keep up the great videos!

Hi Tim, I'm not sure if you remember me but I've been supporting you and your channel since the beginning. I always thought that you had the perfect voice and personality to make amazing videos. A lot has happened since I last commented on your videos. The main changes for me are that my Mum, who was my best friend passed away a year ago on Boxing Day 2020 so it's been a heartbreaking time for my family this year. My health is continually changing for the worst but I'm fighting to survive everyday especially because I'm the sole carer for my Dad. We are a good team together just like we were with Mum. I hope that you and your loved ones had an awesome Christmas especially since covid changed the world how we have adapted to the new normal. Take care and I hope that you are happy because you really are a special person to many as you are with me. Xx

@rodolfoquiroz7819 Thank you for your kindness. Unfortunately, 13 months after Mum died, I found my Dad after he unexpectedly but peacefully passed away. It's been a few tough years in many ways. We always thought I'd be the first to pass because 14 years ago, my lifelong specialists gave me two years at the most to live, which was realistic considering my extensive health history. I'm positive and a fighter so I tend to look at the positives and there must be a reason why God hasn't called me home yet. I wish you and your loved ones all the best. God bless

What they call white tuna is not real tuna. It's a type of fish called escolar. It's an extremely oil fish that if you consume too much of will make you sick. They used to called it that in Ontario as well, but have since been removed from calling tuna because of people complaining of mislabelling fish. It's banned in Japan from consumption.

Awesome review Tim! When in Queens NYC, I will have to check this Asian Buffet out! Seeing this place, reminds me of some years back right on the NYC and Nassau county border line, on Queens Boulevard, was the best Asain Buffet, that I ever experienced. It was called;" The Harvest Buffet". I recall meeting a gentleman, who told me that the Harvest Buffet , was the equivalent of what he experienced in Thailand, it was the best amongst the best! This establishment; " The Buffet", looks like an amazing buffet to experience. I will have to check it out!

@TimLeeLetsGo Год назад

Thank you so much! I wonder if the harvest Buffet is still there

@MrHrKaidoOjamaaVKJV Год назад

@Tim Lee Your most welcome Tim, please keep up the good work! Sadly it seems that the Harvest Buffet on Queens Boulevard has Permintley Closed. As I did a Google search and it comes as, Permintley Closed. I believe that it was a solo Restaurant not part if a chain. I do recall that the Harvest Buffet also had whole cooked Turkey in addition to the better quality Sushi and Seafood.

Looks awesome Tim. I've had frog legs twice in Ottawa/Hull at two different Chinese restaurants. Both were served on skewers. I thought it was good. Tasted like chicken. I wonder if breading ruined it for you.

@TimLeeLetsGo 2 года назад

Yeah, I think it was just the seasoning or lack thereof. The coating was really nice and tasty but the meat was quite bland so I think it's probably just a matter of seasoning...

At about $50 for dinner, it far outweighs the Nordic buffet in RI @$125 or the Crab House Buffet in Manhattan @$105. The only items missing at The-Buffet in Flushing were lobsters & a wide selection of American-style desserts, SO WHAT🤔 Again, great stop you really persevered😁⭐👍
